[comp.dcom.fax] JetFax and UNIX drivers

I'm planning to buy a JetFax unit, which only comes with DOS
drivers.  This thing sits next to an HP LaserJet, and will print
incoming FAXes on it.  It also has a parallel interface so your PC
can output data to it for FAXing outwards.

It currently uses a DOS TSR to convert the outgoing text to a Group
III data stream.  I'd like to do the same thing under UNIX -- can
someone please point me to a good converter or source of fonts which
can be used to output G3.   Also, TIFF and GIF to G3 converters
would be helpful also.  Does PBM have this functionality?
