Thanks Google brought me to this page. Only suggestion would be that this could have just been a demo console app vs. a forms app.

Do we have to convert to bmp and send one page at the time? It would be nice to be able to do that in one go.

I believe so. See one of the earlier posts, there is another reference you can add, this might give you better options with regards to multiple pages.

Hello,
I try to get the code below to work.
If I use test.tif it works just fine but all other extensions (pdf, txt, jpg
and so on) failing with "The data is invalid Exception from HRESULT:
0x8007000D".
I checked if the default setting for the extensions are correct and they are
assigned to notepad (txt) and acrobat reader (pdf) and Windows Picture and
Fax Viewer for (jpg).
I run Filemon and Regmon to see if there is an permission problem during the
click event but everything seems fine.
After the Error I have 2 events in my server logs.
Event ID 11
Document 4, 1C8673290FA2F - Notepad owned by NETWORK SERVICE was paused on
Fax.
Event ID 13
Document 4, 1C8673290FA2F - Notepad owned by NETWORK SERVICE was deleted on
Fax.
any suggestions what's wrong?
Regards
Anthony

I believe you need to convert the documents to Bitmaps (.bmp) and then pass the file path of the bitmap to the fax service.

Dear Leon ,
I did so , however it failed again!
I solved my problem using FAXComExlib instead of FAXComlib. I believe it is more compatible with win XP usages than FAXComlib.

SedArash, please help!
Where did you get a copy of FAXCOMEXLib.dll?
Where and how did you install it?
Thanks, Nina!

Goto > Add and Remove Programs and Select Windows Components. Make sure you have Faxing Service installed. Once this is installed you will can add the reference into your project from the Com Components list.

I downloaded your application ,while am trying to send fax by using your demo program i received error "The system can not find the file specified".
I dint understand which File is missing?
and what type of file formats we can use to send fax?
please help me

I have two questions:
1) Theres a generated file name at the top of the fax page each time a fax is send. Looks liek " 1c7ff7dc3122" how can I get rid of it?
2) The fax values at the top of the page such as the DATA, TIME, FROM: TO: PAGE:
I want to add From: Company Name, SenderPhoneNumber, Sender Name to the top of the page,
I added another txt field for the Company Name input and changed the function code :
public void SendFax(string DocumentName, string FileName, string RecipientName, string FaxNumber, string SenderNumber , string SenderName, string SenderCompany)
{
if (FaxNumber != "")
{
try
{
FAXCOMLib.FaxServer faxServer = new FAXCOMLib.FaxServerClass();
faxServer.Connect(Environment.MachineName);
FAXCOMLib.FaxDoc faxDoc = (FAXCOMLib.FaxDoc)faxServer.CreateDocument(FileName);
faxDoc.RecipientName = RecipientName;
faxDoc.FaxNumber = FaxNumber;
faxDoc.SenderFax = SenderNumber;
faxDoc.SenderName = SenderName;
faxDoc.SenderCompany = SenderCompany;
Now it read the SenderCompany, but it prints it out at the top of the page as;
FROM: Fax TheCompanyName
it doesnt print out the senderNumber ( I added a sendernumber input field too )
and the others, plues it prints the word "Fax" before the company Name.
I want to get rid of the "Fax" and want to add the other values to the top. Such as senderName, SenderPhone number etc.
Any solution?

The 1c7ff7dc3122 text at the top of the page would be the document name I recon. It was probably creating a temp file and that is the name it used. I am not sure how you would add the other information to the page except for adding it to the document you are sending. If you use an image you can 'paint' the info in with System.Drawing class other than that sorry, not sure.

you already have a documentName text field in the application. But I couldn't find where that "1c7ff7dc3122" text comes from. I want to stop printing it.
If you can check and let me know that ll be great.
Thanks

Hi,
I am having a Brother Printer/fax machine. I tested your Demo program of sending a fax over it.
Before i go further, can i check if this program is to sent fax from a faxmachine(through the initative from PC) to another faxmachine, or is it sending a prompt to the fax maching attached through the PC?
I am trying to fax a single document to number of different destination faxes at a single prompt. So i though to modify your software if it works properly. But as for me when pressed sent button, it shows a error message "Unknown exception". Could you please help me out.
Thanks.

And also could you please tell me the format of the Fax number.
As in with country code in front or with '+' and then country code?

Hi!
In my application I need to send faxes. Everything works fine, but ...
Problem is, that I need to integrate my little application to service oriented system and run it as a windows service.
When I execute Connect() method from FaxServerClass, the service application hangs there until service startup timeout..
When I execute Connect method in standard windows application everything is fine.
I tried setting all permission to everybody on Fax. I also tried changing the call Connect(Environment.MachineName) to Connect(""). No results
Please help

The fax interface uses a user interface dialog (UI), try and enable 'desktop interaction' on your service. Hope that helps.
I don't think this is an security issue, but possibly, services need special permissions to access network resource or UNC paths, but the faxing should be local. Also keep in mind that you are calling a Desktop tool and not another service here. I might be a service handeling the actual faxing, but we are only instructing the windows faxing UI interace.

I tried also 'desktop interaction', I forgot to mention that..
I set the permissions, because many people reported similar problems when using FS in web services or ASP.NET applications. It was issue with no permissions for CurrentUser - application starts in different user context than it is running in.
Somebody has to know answer for my question
