Just tried Hylafax. After spending hours to play around, I finally got Hyafax to receive fax. However, the pages received are just rubbish. When I setup Hylafax to email received fax as a PDF to me, that PDF is a totally white page.
Do you know where can I start to find and fix the problem?
Debian installed is Sarge, with kernel 2.6.7. Hylafax-server, hylafax-doc and hylafax-client are all 4.1.8-13
The only suspicious thing in the installation is the complaint about ghostscript fonts. I did this to quiet the complaint:
ln -s /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts /usr/share/gs-gpl/fonts
This works to get hylafax to send.
well first just simplify ...
don't bother with email or translating formats ... just try to read the tiff files that hylafax creates when it receives a fax
Did that. And get only random black lines. :(
if the problem is with tiff files then you can usually force the modem to negotiate a more compatible format; there are all manner of tiff varieties and it can be a real PITAThank you very much. Do try that. And will report it when I get any progress.
tiff libraries in sarge were recently upgraded to libtiff4 and this could be the issue
is translation to postscript is the issue you should look at ghostscript ...
check the BTS for hylafax and ghostscript
