4Fax – WordPerfect Integration

The 4Fax API was used to implement an automated mail merge fax server for the mail room of the EOP. The system captured documents that were create and printed in WordPerfect, optionally using mail merge lists. Each captured document was converted from PCL5 to a fax image and scheduled for transmission to the destination fax number contained in the document. The documents were then faxed in order by a communications despooler that read from the queue and serviced the fax machine.

This custom solution was developed in partnership with Canon USA, working with their regional office in Washington, DC.
