Well, following what you said about the "scan" button in STFax,
I stirred the grey matter a little and tried it with PhotoScope. I
managed to get it to scan and save out in the .stf fax file format in
STFax. It produced a file of 14kb which is a step in the right
direction. I didn't have chance to see if a sent fax worked but I used
the .stf file as an attachment in a e-mail and it works fine.
Can I ask what you, in your experience, consider an average fax file
size to be (A4). If there is such a thing.
