With my LaserMaster setup, I can capture the output of a screen in
Ventura as a .PCX file. This can then be converted with HiJaaK's convert
program to a FAX format file.
I think that you could also grab the Ventura screen with HotShot,
another screen grabber utiltiy, and that would let you do the same
thing. Either way, you will have to go through a couple of conversion
steps to make a DPT fax output, but I think at this time there is no
DIRECT method to output a fax file from Ventura.
I hope this helps.
