+
+kfax can display all fax output modes of ghostscript:
+raw: fag3 faxg32d faxg4
+tiff: tiffg3 tiffg32d tiffg4
+
+By default raw fax files are interpreted as g3 files. If you want
+to display faxg3-2d and faxg4 files you have to specifiy this on
+the command line and in the case of raw g4 files also specify
+the height in scan lines of the fax if it differs from the
+default 2155.
+
+A raw file will have no pagignation information and will be displayed
+as a whole in the fax window.
+tiff files contain pagination information can be paged through in the
+fax window
+
+kfax can not display image file formats which are not related to
+faxing, such as an arbitrary tiff or gif file.
+
+
+How to create fax file that sendfax /mgetty can accept and send:
+gs -sDEVICE=faxg3 -sOutputFile=/tmp/fax.g3.%d yourdocument.ps
+
+Assume that you ps document yourdocumnet.ps contains three pages,
+this will produce fax.g3.1 fax.g3.2 fax.g3.3

+
+How to print raw " no tiff " g3 fax data:
+
+
+
+fax2tiff -M viewfax.g3 -o viewfax.tiff
+(M for: Treat input data as having bits filled from most
+ significant bit (MSB) to most least bit (LSB))
+This is what I need on my intel machine, I would presume this
+might be different on a Sun station.
