[comp.dcom.modems] Faxing a File

SAGER@S35.Prime.COM (12/08/89)

I would like any information on the subject of Fax's. I have read the CCITT
Red book on this matter. I understand how a physical Fax machine can scan an
image, and generate a bitmap. My question is this:

   Does anyone know how to say, scan a file on a computer to generate the
   bitmap. I want to be able to Fax a file from my mainframe (Assuming of
   course all the hardware is provided.) All I need is a way to generate the
   original bit map from a computer file. Assume for the moment we're dealing
   with ASCII text.  ANY help would be appreciated...

Reply to me directly to ensure receipt of your replies. Again, thank you.
