BL> I've loaded AutoCad drawings into WfW (using the insert picture
BL> command) and printed them with no trouble at all. You have to have
BL> the actual picture on screen though, and saved to the document, or
BL> it'll just print the name of the frame (or whatever they call it).
BL> Have you tried printing the document with the picture in it? Winfax
BL> is just another printer driver, so it ought to work the same.

PE> Ok, I've done a heap more testing, and here's the latest state of play:

PE> 1. If I print onto my Epson printer using Word it works fine.

PE> 2. Sending it to WinFax Lite fails (at the other end)

PE> 3. Sending it to Workgroup's Mail program works fine, so it's not a
PE> problem with my modem.

PE> 4. Saving a file from Amipro (which prints on my Epson fine) to a
PE> "print to file", with an Epson LX-850 as the printer, and then using
PE> DosFax Lite to send it (under dos) also fails (at the other end). 
PE> DosFax Lite is meant to emulate an Epson LX-85, but perhaps this is
PE> the same as LX-850?

PE> 5. I have read the WinFax Lite and the DosFax Lite manuals, and I
PE> can't see anything wrong.

Its precisely that problem that has seen a number just give up and get
Faxworks etc for OS2.

'Better Win than Win'  Bthzzzzz. Pack of lies.
