Another Rave Review of Faximum PLUS Release 2
The praise for Faximum PLUS Release 2 continues!
Last year Faximum PLUS was reviewed by UNIXWORLD magazine and
chosen as the best Fax for UNIX package of those reviewed. Earlier
this year Guru Magazine called Faximum "most complete and comprehensive"
and stated "This great product is well worth the investment."
Now UNIX Review has joined the chorus and says "Faximum is
the system of choice":
"The cover sheet capabilities are the best we have
seen for any UNIX Fax package. Faximum's emulators provide full
fax support for PostScript, PCL-4 (LaserJet Series II), and PCL-5
(LaserJet Series III) languages. With these options installed,
few applications can't use Faximum directly. Each emulator comes
with a good selection of fonts and can handle soft fonts too.
Faxing multiple files at once is easy with Faximum's Quick Fax
system.
Faximum has a few features we really liked. A partial retransmission
will send any pages that were not successfully sent. This feature
can save time when handling long documents. A special cover sheet
is sent with retries.
The Faximum emulators handle graphics output from packages like
CorelDraw! with ease. During our tests, FrameMaker and Word newsletter
formats, which included graphics, were handled transparently.
We could send practically anything through the Faximum system...
Faximum is the only package tested that provided PCL-5 emulation
and could handle some of our CorelDraw! output. The software is
easy to work with, and even easier to manage. We were very impressed
with Faximum....for non-X systems running recent applications
that support the LaserJet Series III, Faximum is the system of
choice.
All tested programs had good documentation, especially Faximum...which
[was] excellent.
Faximum offers the best emulation capabilities, and it will handle
everything you can throw at it...we like Faximum for straight
UNIX.
Choosing one winner? For straight UNIX, we take Faximum over both
DigiFAX and ArnetFAX..."
