faxspool (acroread)

[Dietmar Segbert]

Hello,

the faxspool-script uses the acroread program to convert pdf-files to ps-
files.

Can i use pdftops of the xpdf-pagage to convert pdf to ps and send to fax
and what is the best command option?

Thanks.

Depending on the mgetty version that you have installed, the pdftops

that starts with:

#FILTER pdf pdftops ...
