NAME
       recvq/fax* - received facsimile document format

DESCRIPTION
       Facsimile received by HylaFAX are placed in the recvq sub-
       directory.  Each facsimile document is stored as a  single
       Class F Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) file.  This format
       includes the following information:
              +o page width and length
              +o horizontal and vertical resolution
              +o page orientation
              +o phone number of the sender
              +o date and time document was received
              +o number of scanlines received with errors
              +o maximum number of consecutive scanlines received with errors
              +o whether or not bad scanlines were regenerated by the receiver
              +o make and model of the modem used to receive the document
              +o name of the host computer on which the document was received

       Image data is written using either CCITT T.4 or CCITT  T.6
       compression.   By  default  data is written using the com-
       pression scheme/data format negotiated by the  sender  and
       receiver.   However,  if  faxgetty(8C) is configured to do
       copy quality checking then data is written using the  com-
       pression  scheme  defined by the RecvDataFormat configura-
       tion parameter; see config(5F).

       A scanline that is regenerated by the receiver because  of
       an  error  is  typically  just a copy of the previous good
       scanline.

       The files in the recvq directory are created with the pro-
       tection   mode   specified  in  the  server  configuration
       file(s).  By default, files are created with mode 0600 and
       owned  by the fax user, which means that they are accessi-
       ble only to the fax user.

       To  print  a  facsimile  on  a  POSTSCRIPT  printer,   the
       fax2ps(1) program can be used.
