       capisuitefax - sending faxes with the CapiSuite default scripts

SYNOPSIS

       capisuitefax [-q] [-n] [-u user] [-A adr] [-S subj] -d number file...

       capisuitefax [-q] -a id

       capisuitefax -h

DESCRIPTION

       The  default  scripts for CapiSuite come with the tool capisuitefax for
       sending faxes.

       It will be called with some parameters telling it which  file  to  send
       (it  currently  only  supports  PostScript  and PDF files) and to which
       number. It will then enqueue the job converted to the right format into
       the  send  queue  from which it’s collected by another CapiSuite script
       and sent to the destination. If the sending was completed  successfully
       or  failed  finally after trying for some time, the according user will
       get an email telling him/her what has happened.

OPTIONS

       -a id  Abort the job with the given id. To get a job  id,  use  the  -l
              option.

       -A adr The  addressee  of  the fax. This option is (currently) only for
              informational purposes and will be quoted  in  the  sent  status
              mail.

       -d number
              The number which should be called (destination of the fax)

       -h     Show a short commandline help

       -l     Shows the jobs which are currently in the send queue.

       -n     Don’t  use  the  configured dial prefix for this job. Useful for
              internal jobs.

       -q     Be quiet, don’t output informational messages

       -S subj
              A subject for the fax.  This  option  is  (currently)  only  for
              informational  purposes  and  will  be quoted in the sent status
              mail.

       -u user
              Send fax as another user. Only allowed if capisuitefax is called
              as user root. This is mainly helpful for realizing extensions to
              e.g. do network faxing.

       file...
              One or more PostScript/PDF files to send  to  this  destination.
              More  than one PostScript file will produce several separate fax
              jobs.
