Delrina WinFax PRO 4.0     README Notes             March 20, 1994
==================================================================
The following information reflects changes made since the Delrina
WinFax PRO Setup Guide and User's Guide went to press, and should 
be reviewed prior to running WinFax.

Where applicable, these notes refer to specific sections in the 
appropriate manual.

WinFax online help can provide you with detailed information when 
you need it most -- while you are using WinFax. To get help from 
any dialog or window in WinFax, press F1.

Important Information
=====================
Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, Delrina is unable
to offer the Fax MailBox Service or the remote retrieval feature
at this time.

We ask that you ignore all references to Delrina Fax MailBox
Service or the remote retrieval capability in your WinFax PRO
manuals and other materials.

We apologize for any inconvenience this recent change may have 
caused.

General
=======
Load SHARE.EXE for installing and running WinFax
------------------------------------------------
Running SHARE is strongly recommended, both for installing and
running WinFax PRO 4.0.

SHARE is a DOS program that provides file sharing and locking 
capabilities. Running SHARE prevents a file or database record 
from being edited by two applications at the same time, which 
might result in data loss. Using SHARE with WinFax is recommended 
if several people have a common phonebook on a network, or 
otherwise share data. SHARE also enhances OCR and phonebook 
functionality.

The command to load SHARE can be run at the DOS prompt, or
added to your AUTOEXEC.BAT or CONFIG.SYS file. Check your
DOS manual for the setting suitable for your system.

Upgrading from a previous version of WinFax 
(Setup Guide, page 2-10)
-------------------------------------------
If you install WinFax PRO 4.0 in a different location than your
old version of WinFax, your old send and receive logs are NOT 
automatically linked or converted. To create a folder containing 
your old sent and received faxes:

1. In the WinFax main module, open the Send Log or Receive Log 
   window.

2. In the Folder list, double click New Folder. The New Archive 
   folder dialog appears.

3. Type a folder name.

4. Click Select. The Archive Filename dialog appears. Specify or 
   select the location of your old send and receive log file. The 
   file name is STATUS.FTM and is located in your old 
   \WINFAX\DATA directory. Click OK.

5. In the New Archive folder dialog, click OK.

Creating an archive folder for old send and receive events does 
not move the actual fax images to your new WinFax directory. Do 
not delete your old WinFax \DATA directory or your archived 
events will be lost.

You can use the same procedure to import old archive folders. An 
archive folder has an .FTM extension.

Comma pause time and credit card dial strings
---------------------------------------------
The default comma pause time in WinFax PRO 4.0 is 2 seconds, and 
you cannot modify this value from within the program. During
installation, the WinFax Setup program will detect if you have set
a comma pause time value of greater than 2 in a previous version
of WinFax. If detected, any existing credit card dial strings will
be automatically supplemented with additional commas up to what
the Credit Card Number field will accommodate within its 20-
character limit. Each comma in the dial string will be replaced
with the appropriate number of additional commas (rounding up).

For example, if the comma pause time was set to 3 seconds in 
WinFax PRO 3.0, a credit card string of ...

82,,123456

... would change to ...

82,,,,123456

If you have used commas for pauses in dial prefixes or phone 
numbers in any phonebook records, you must adjust those 
individually after installing WinFax PRO 4.0.

Fax-a-File/File Transfer Considerations
---------------------------------------
If you have a Class 1 or CAS fax/modem, you can use Fax-a-File 
for transferring binary files. Check the following list for a 
description of the event transmission types supported by 
your fax/modem.

* Class 1 fax/modems support the following Fax-a-File event 
  transmission types:

  BFT
  ---
  When you select BFT, WinFax determines the capabilities of 
  the remote device and sends your event using either of the 
  following BFT formats:

  - Microsoft At Work(TM), Microsoft's BFT format with advanced 
    security features for sending key-encrypted and digitally 
    signed events. The recipient must be running software that 
    supports Microsoft At Work -- for example, Windows for
    Workgroups 3.11 -- with a Class 1 fax/modem.

  - Standard CCITT T.434 binary file transfer
    The recipient must be using a BFT-capable fax device, such 
    as a Class 1 fax/modem with the appropriate fax software. 
    Some fax machines can also receive BFT events.

  Compressed BFT
  --------------
  Compressed BFT provides faster WinFax to WinFax file transfer,
  because files are sent compressed. The recipient must be 
  running WinFax PRO 4.0 or later with a Class 1 fax/modem. When 
  sending, you can change to this transmission type by selecting
  Compressed BFT from the Send By drop-down list in the Schedule/
  Modify Events dialog.

* CAS fax/modems support the SatisFAXtion event transmission type 
  -- an Intel CAS BFT format. Both you and the recipient must be 
  running CAS software and fax/modems that support Intel 
  SatisFAXtion file transfer.

* Class 2 fax/modems do not support Fax-a-File transmissions. 
  With a Class 2 fax/modem, you can send conventional faxes only.

When defining recipients in phonebooks, you have two choices in 
the Connections section of the Phonebook Recipient dialog - 
either Fax and BFT, or Fax and SatisFAXtion. When sending to a 
recipient defined as BFT, WinFax determines what kind of device 
it is communicating with, and uses the Microsoft At Work or T.434 
protocol, as appropriate.

At the time you are sending an event, you have three options, 
available from the Send By drop-down list in the Schedule/Modify 
Events dialog: Fax, BFT and Compressed BFT. When you choose 
Compressed BFT, WinFax determines whether it is communicating 
with another computer that is running WinFax PRO 4.0, and uses 
the Compressed BFT protocol, as appropriate. If the recipient is
not WinFax, but is running software that supports Microsoft At
Work, such as Windows for Workgroups 3.11, with a Class 1 fax/
modem, WinFax sends using the Microsoft At Work protocol.

* Microsoft At Work is a trademark of Microsoft Corporation.

Disabling Microsoft PC Fax with Windows for Workgroups 3.11 
-----------------------------------------------------------
If you are running Windows for Workgroups 3.11, the WinFax Setup 
program will disable Microsoft PC Fax if it detects this fax 
utility on your system. The Setup program checks your 
MSMAIL.INI file for the following:

[EFAX Transport]
LocalFax=1

If LocalFax=1 is detected, or this section is not present, 
the WinFax Setup program adds or modifies the setting 
as follows:

[EFAX Transport]
LocalFax=0

You cannot install WinFax while MS PC Fax is running. If the 
Setup program detects that the utility is running, you are 
prompted to exit the install, close PC Fax and restart the 
WinFax Setup program.

The Setup progam will also remove the Fax menu from your 
Microsoft Mail client, by removing the following lines from
your MSMAIL.INI file:

[Custom Menus]
Fax=3.0;Fa&x;Window;View or change fax queue, settings, and options.

[Custom Commands]
FaxOpts=3.0;Fax;&Options...;0;faxopt.dll;3;;System Fax Options;msfax.hlp;-1;
FaxMgr=3.0;Fax;&Queue...;1;faxopt.dll;4;;Fax Queue;msfax.hlp;-1;
FaxAnswer2=3.0;Fax;&Mode...;2;faxopt.dll;7;;Change Fax Answer or Online Mode;msfax.hlp;-1;
FaxSecur=3.0;Fax;Advanced &Security...;3;faxopt.dll;5;;Fax Security;msfax.hlp;-1;
FaxSep1=3.0;Fax;;4
FaxCheck=3.0;Fax;&View New Faxes!;5;faxopt.dll;8;;Check for New Fax Messages;msfax.hlp;-1;
FaxAnswer=3.0;Fax;&Answer Now!;6;faxopt.dll;6;;Answer Fax Modem;msfax.hlp;-1;
FaxHelp=3.0;Help;&Fax;1;faxopt.dll;2;;Fax Help;msfax.hlp;-1;

You can easily restore these lines, which resets these options 
to the defaults. Go to Control Panel, double click the Fax icon, 
then click OK in the Fax Modems dialog.

Tutorial 3 - Viewing and Marking Up a Fax
-----------------------------------------
On page 14-26 of the Delrina WinFax PRO User's Guide, the note 
should read: "DRAFT.TIF should be located in your \WINFAX\COVER 
subdirectory."

On page 14-32, in the procedure for adding a stamp, you do not 
have to select the TIFF graphic file for the stamp you want to 
add. When you open the Stamp dialog, the predefined stamps that 
come with WinFax, and any other stamps you created, are listed 
there. Click the stamp you want to use -- which, in the case of 
this tutorial, is DRAFT -- then click OK. The stamp appears on 
your page.

CAS restriction on maximum number of log entries 
------------------------------------------------
If you use WinFax with a CAS fax/modem, WinFax may experience 
problems storing events in your logs after a certain number of 
entries are logged. The CAS fax software that comes with your 
fax/modem maintains its own log of send and receive events. If 
the number of entries in the CAS log exceeds the allowable 
maximum, error messages such as "CAS DOS Error: Invalid data" 
appear, and events fail.

To handle this problem, run the Setup program for your CAS fax 
software and verify or increase (to a maximum of 999) the 
allowable number of CAS log entries. To help stay within this 
limit, delete all unnecessary log entries from WinFax, which also
removes the duplicate entries from the CAS log. This problem may 
occur more frequently if you are running Windows for Workgroups 
3.11. 

Using WinFax with Intermission and the Opus 'n Bill screen saver
---------------------------------------------------------------
When using WinFax with Intermission and Opus 'n Bill, your screen 
may intermittently display a blank screen instead of the selected 
screen saver module. Before it activates the screen saver, 
Intermission checks to see if the Opus 'n Bill screen saver 
module might conflict with WinFax trying to send or receive 
faxes. The blank screen display ensures that fax transmissions 
are not interrupted.

Maximum ten keywords, billing codes and prefixes 
in drop-down lists
------------------------------------------------
The drop-down lists for keywords, billing codes and dial prefixes 
can store the ten most recently used entries. If you have ten 
entries in one of these lists and add one more, the new entry and 
the nine most recently added entries are saved. The oldest entry 
in the list is removed. You can specify keywords and billing 
codes in the Schedule/Modify Events dialog, and dial prefixes in 
the Send Options and User Setup dialogs. The ten-entry limit 
applies to what is displayed in the drop-down lists only, and 
not the total number of keywords and billing codes you can 
specify for your faxes.

Phonebooks maintain duplicate records to avoid data loss
--------------------------------------------------------
If you import an ASCII data record to a WinFax phonebook, and the 
phonebook already contains a recipient record with the same name 
and company, a duplicate recipient record is created. Similarly, 
if you copy multiple recipient records with the same name and 
company to another phonebook, WinFax does not merge or overwrite 
records.

Using the WinFax OLE Template option with 
Microsoft Word for Windows 6.0
-----------------------------------------
If you are creating an OLE cover page in WinFax using Microsoft 
Word 6.0, select the Insert option in WinFax (Cover Page/OLE/
Insert). If you select Template instead of Insert, you will not
be able to close Word 6.0 and return to WinFax.

WINFAX.INI Considerations
-------------------------
If you delete your WINFAX.INI file at any time, most of the 
WinFax program preference settings in the file are recreated when 
you next run the program. However, the settings for graphic 
formats that can be loaded into WinFax (chiefly the Cover Page 
Designer) must be restored by copying and pasting the following 
back into your WINFAX.INI file:

[WinFax Importers]
Windows Bitmap (*.bmp)=BMP,DTIFLBMP.DLL,*.DIB;*.BMP
Windows Metafile (*.wmf)=WMF,DTIFLWMF.DLL,*.WMF
TIFF (*.tif)=TIF,DTIFLTIF.DLL,*.TIF
PC Paintbrush (*.pcx)=PCX,DTIFLPCX.DLL,*.PCX
GEM Image (*.img)=IMG,DTIFLIMG.DLL,*.IMG
GEM Metafile (*.gem)=GEM,DTIFLGEM.DLL,*.GEM
Mac Paint (*.bin)=PNT,DTIFLPNT.DLL,*.BIN
Encap. Postscript (*.eps)=EPS,DTIFLEPS.DLL,*.EPS
Gr. Interchange (*.gif)=GIF,DTIFLGIF.DLL,*.GIF
WinFax (*.fxs)=FXS,DTIFLFXS.DLL,*.FXS

===============================
Filling In WinFax Cover Pages (page 3-24)
-------------------------------------------------
The commands for changing text color and justification are not 
available on the Text menu in WinFax Cover Page Filler. You can 
use these commands -- Black Text, White Text, Left Justify, 
Center Justify, Right Justify -- to customize your cover page 
text in Cover Page Designer or when previewing and annotating 
faxes.


Dialing a Fax Number Manually (page 3-31)
-----------------------------------------
To help ensure a successful fax transmission when dialing 
manually, perform step #5 of this procedure as follows.

- Pick up the telephone handset and dial the recipient's fax 
  number.
- As soon as you finish dialing the number, click Send Now to 
  release the held fax.
- When the WinFax Status dialog reads "Connecting..." and you
  hear your fax/modem pick up the line (go "off hook"), hang up 
  the telephone handset immediately.

Receiving Faxes Manually (page 4-3)
-----------------------------------
To help ensure a successful fax reception when receiving manually 
on a shared voice/fax line, do the following.

- If you pick up the telephone handset and hear an incoming fax 
  call, select the Manual Receive Now command.
- When the WinFax Status dialog reads "Answering..." and you hear 
  your fax/modem pick up the line (go "off hook"), hang up the 
  telephone handset immediately.

Spell Checking Recognized Text (pages 9-12 and 9-13)
----------------------------------------------------
The spell checking options described here are not available.

Using WinFax DDE Macro Commands (page 11-7)
-------------------------------------------
DDEPoke supports one item only, SendFax. The items listed in 
table -- recipient, setcoverpage, fillcoverpage, attach, 
resolution and showsendscreen -- are actually commands for use 
with the SendFax item. See the examples of DDEPoke commands in 
the WinFax online help for the correct usage of the SendFax item 
in a DDEPoke statement.
