NAME

6       recvq/fax* - received facsimile document format
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Facsimile  received  by  HylaFAX  are placed in the recvq subdirectory.
10       Each facsimile document is stored as a single Class F Tagged Image File
11       Format (TIFF) file.  This format includes the following information:
12              · page width and length
13              · horizontal and vertical resolution
14              · page orientation
15              · phone number of the sender
16              · date and time document was received
17              · number of scanlines received with errors
18              · maximum number of consecutive scanlines received with errors
19              · whether or not bad scanlines were regenerated by the receiver
20              · make and model of the modem used to receive the document
21              · name of the host computer on which the document was received
22
23       Image  data is written using either CCITT T.4 or CCITT T.6 compression.
24       By default data is written using  the  compression  scheme/data  format
25       negotiated  by  the  sender  and receiver.  However, if faxgetty(8C) is
26       configured to do copy quality checking then data is written  using  the
27       compression  scheme defined by the RecvDataFormat configuration parame‐
28       ter; see hylafax-config(5F).
29
30       A scanline that is regenerated by the receiver because of an  error  is
31       typically just a copy of the previous good scanline.
32
33       The  files  in the recvq directory are created with the protection mode
34       specified in the server configuration file(s).  By default,  files  are
35       created with mode 0600 and owned by the fax user, which means that they
36       are accessible only to the fax user.
37
38       To print a facsimile on a POSTSCRIPT® printer,  the  fax2ps(1)  program
39       can be used.
