The Format Tab

NOTE:
The Format tab options are not used for this version of the product. Modifying any of these settings does not change the fax formatting or the software performance.

The Format dialog tab controls the appearance of ASCII-text fax transactions.

  1. Select a channel or range of channels from the Overview tab.
  2. Click the Properties button to view the properties associated with the selected channel(s).
  3. Click the Format tab.

The Control Panel Applet software initially assumes that no values are set in the registry for the Format page, so most of the controls may appear blank.

If no user values are specified in the Format tab, faxes can still be sent and received with your system defaults.

The following fonts are available from the Font Style pull down menu:

System

Select this option to use the default system font.

Standard (Sans Serif 12 pt)

Select this option to use 12 point Sans Serif font.

Auxiliary (Courier 12 pt)

Select this option to use 12 point Courier font.

Compressible

Select this option to use a compressible font.

Selecting one of these options adds the GFXCHARSET command and its associated value to the registry key for the selected channel(s).

Select the ASCII character set to use from the Character Set pull down menu. Selecting one of these options adds the GFXEXTEND command and its associated value to the registry key for the selected channel(s).

32-127 Standard ASCII code

Select this option to use Standard ASCII characters for text. This selection is the default selection for this option.

32-255 Extended ASCII code

Select this option to use the Extended ASCII character set for text.

0-255 Full ASCII code

Select this option to use the Full ASCII character set for text.

The Lines Per Page control box sets the number of lines to print on each facsimile page sent. This command adds the GFXPAGELENGTH command to the selected channel(s).

Valid values range from 0 to 32,767 (use setting 0 used for variable length documents). The default value is 0.

Margin control is set through the Margins area of the Format tab. Bottom, left, right and top margins are set individually through the Bottom, Left, Right and Top control boxes.

Valid values for the top and bottom margin range from 0-65 while the left and right margin range from 0-215.

Selecting a value adds the GFXBOTTOMMARGIN, GFXLEFTMARGIN, GFXRIGHTMARGIN and GFXTOPMARGIN values to the registry key.

The applet generates a Format Page Error if the value specified for a margin is out of range. That is, the left margin cannot be greater than the right margin and the bottom and top margins cannot be greater than the number of lines specified in Lines Per Page.

Click the Use Default Margins radio control button at the bottom of the Margins area to override any user selected entries in the control boxes and return margins to the default values. The default margins are:

Bottom

3

Left

14

Right

94

Top

3

Click OK to accept the changes for the selected channel(s) or Cancel to exit the Format tab without accepting the changes.
