Looking for software to send/receive faxes over the Internet.

In the near future, I will be sending and receiving a lot of faxes from all over the US. I am interested in doing this as cheaply as possible.

I plan to fax documents already on my harddrive (mostly microsoft word and PDF documents). I would like to receive faxed documents in a PDF file, perhaps to my email account.

ClickFax Pro 1.3 says it is software to send/receive faxes over the Internet from any application. Does anyone have any experience with ClickFax Pro 1.3? Also, do you have any recommendations as to software to send/receive faxes over the Internet.

Thanks!

 

You can send a fax for free to anywhere in the U.S. and Canada at http://faxzero.com/ . However, they slap their logo on your fax (e.g. place their Ad on the cover page). They offer $1.79 per fax costs, but I don't know whether that is cheap.

I'm still looking for that cheap fax system and am open to suggestions. Presently, I'm scanning in all documents and then emailing them, but that doesn't work in all situations.

 

18,300 links to "fax from PC", from google. Hope this helps. Bazza

I have been using V3Call Center for the past two years. Not only does it send and receive faxes, but it's a complete call center that includes voice answering machine.

Here is the site: http://www.v3fax.com

Hope this works

I think there is a fax program that comes with windows...Accessories>communications>fax>send a fax???

 

It doesn't appear on my installed copy of XP Pro.
Is it installed by default in XP or do I have to custom install it?

Thanks languy99 and TimW for your replies.
Gonna have to dig out my CD (Toshiba version, cheapskates ) and install it. Bazza

2 links that I came across while re-reading an old PC mag.

http://tinyurl.com/2cgc3 (Fax by modem)

and http://tinyurl.com/2tr2h (faxmail)

The last one plonks an advertisement on every fax sent, which is a downer.

Have never tried either so can't comment on how well they work or not. Bazza
