Hi Jason,
Have you tried setting up a printer selection within
Word/Works/WordPerfect as an IBM Proprinter X24E configured for LPT3?
If you do this, then you should be able to print to that selection and
have the FaxWorks software that came with OS/2 send your document just
fine. Select the FaxWorks printer object to activate it and select
Printer Setup (under Fax), then highlight FxPrint and select Job
Properties to be sure it is configured correctly. The help is adequate
to guide you.
I know this works because I have my system set up to capture output this
way from Geoworks Ensemble as well as Word Perfect 6.0c (DOS). FaxWorks
will send the output just fine, even multi-page documents.
Let me know if this works for you,
Stephen
