[sci.electronics] FAX/MODEM Board for IBM PC

kahhan@batpa3.bnr.ca (03/25/91)

I hope that this is the correct news group for this question. I am now
the proud owner of a Digitan Systems FAX/MODEM board for my PC. Software
came with it for the FAX and MODEM functions, but PROCOMM PLUS works so
well that I intend to use it for the MODEM. The FAX software (BITFAX)
leaves something to be desired, however. 

My question is this (actually 2 questions). First, is there a public 
domain software package (like PROCOMM) for running with FAX boards? 
Second, is there a public domain utility that will allow me to take
received FAXs and convert them to an ASCII text file (assuming that
they're text files to begin with).

Thanks.
