Used Delrina Fax Lite for several years, until Symantec (?) dumped the Mac version and O/S updates made mine useless. Currently use shareware ValueFax and find it excellent. Having set it up, I never do anything until I want to send a fax. This operation is just like printing - chose the print command plus your choice of hot key and the document is 'printed' to the fax software and then faxed out - no problems. However, it won't seem to handle postscript documents but then I usually fax text. Regards, -- Larry Stoter 17, Rocks Park Road, Uckfield, E.
