Yo PgS,

How the @##$$%!!!!! does one send a fax in PgS???!!!!! It's so easy in Ppage that I
never tried it in PgS, but Ppage is misbehaving now so I must use PgS. I
use GPFax...which tells me it can't decode an iff file.

Hey, is it just me, or are the eGroups ads turning out to be a bit of a

Anyone interested in getting together to sponsor a non-ad-bearing list?

Run GPFax in background.
Prepare your PageStream document as for printing.
Go into your printer prefs and change printer to Preferences
Printer.
Print.
Your PageStream document with however many pages will convert to
an outgoing set of GPFax files.

Only caveat is with some Amigas running OS3.5. My Calgary 3000t
handles PageStream/GPFAx just fine under OS3.5 but my Vancouver
3000UX can't find GPFax under 3.5 so that machine has been throttled
back to WB3.1

1. Turn on modem, Start GPFax
2. Start Pagestream
3. Set printer to "Preference"
4. Print to fax.

I always get a warning requester from GPFax:
"Unable to determine screen info"

ignore it, it doesn't seem to make any difference. "Fine" mode in GPFax
works best. I've been puzzling over some screwy behavior when re-sending
forms that have been faxed to me, especially in landscape mode.

Ads? What ads? : )))

To tell you the truth, I just totally ignore them.

Don't really care. They don't do anything for or against me.
I can ignore them if I choose. Just like I can ignore .sig's,
and I am sure most people ignore mine after they get the third
email from me.

When was the last time YOU read anyone "old"s .sig?
(Unless you suddenly decided you wanted to see what kind
of antiquated system some fanatical Amiga user might have...?

Well, I have never been able to successfully send a FAX using
anything here. I have, I think, STFax, and since I have no real
need for a FAX, I have not registered it or any other FAX program.

But, I have tried a half dozen times, all to no avail. : ((

I gave up with FAX on the Amiga months ago!
(I am sure others will counter my mail, but that is just
how I feel. IF I had a burning need, I would spend more
time on it...)

Well, I guess I will have to try it again when I get the
time... but that will be after the end of June. Presently
I am preparing my last university course field project on

Well, I don't think it was GPFax that I had... the one I have
tried was the demo of the one by that Italian fellow... name

I don't get it - who reads EGroups advertisements?? I've never noticed it.
After reading email, just delete it or reply.

I agree... Like mine (10 lines)

Hey, does the digest mode make only one ad appear at the end?

Anyway, if this list works well, I'll take it "non-ad". I'll probably leave
the beta lists with ads just to keep the traffic down

But if everyone wants to send me money, I'll be glad to take them all
ad-free

Heh. Makes sense.

I've been told that egroups periodically spams the subscribers to lists, but
it's probably low enough volume to be mostly-harmless.

-s

What nuisance?

I see people complaining of the ads from time to time, but I don't see
what the big deal is. It is just a small banner at the bottom of the
message, and if you get the digest you only get it once at the bottom of
the digest.

They are a pain if you read email offline and then when you reach a message
with an ad you're reconnected!

Huh?
The ads I see are just a couple of lines of text about Old School
Reunions. There is no way that can force a reconnection.

What email software are you using? Try YAM.

For example Lani's messages that are sent in HTML with "graphic ads"
embedded will cause a reconnect. This is on a Mac.

So it isn't eGroup's ads, it is Lani's! :'/

Maybe no one should be sending HTML to the list. That is normal for
mailing lists, as HTML can cause digests to do weird things, and cause
the behavior you mentioned.

I, and probably many others, are now accessing the internet via a
Windows (ptui!) or Mac. And mine tries to reconnect without asking,
also.

It isn't the links that cause reconnection - it's HTML content. I have had
that happen once or twice with messages from the list too. I occasionally
get email from places that is nothing but HTML content, and it is *really*
annoying. Fortunately, most of the ads that come thru with list messages
aren't HTML, but as I said a few have been. (I'm using Outlook Express on a
Windows 98 machine.)

On YAM, the HTML is just clutter - lots of code below the ASCII text
that I actually read. A one-line reply can be 40 lines of HTML.

But it sounds as though on other platforms it could actually be
dangerous. I strongly suggest not sending emails with HTML. There's no
need for it.
