How Web Faxing Works
You and your employees can create and send professional faxes and broadcast them to multiple people in the US or overseas. You can block junk faxes, create custom cover pages, sign faxes electronically, and attach documents. Plans include free fax software and is as easy to use as printing a document.
For instance, web faxing is fully integrated with Microsoft Office so you
can fax directly from Word or Excel by just clicking the
fax
icon on your toolbar. In addition, you can fax from other Windows applications
by selecting Print from the File menu and choosing InternetFax
as the printer. The toll free or local number you get when you sign up
serves as your fax number —but keep in mind that faxing does not tie
up your lines so callers never hear a busy signal.
You’ll have a variety of fax delivery options from which you can choose to receive faxes: Email, your online account, and your desktop fax management tool Call Controller. Faxes are stored in your online account for 30 days and you can download them to your PC for permanent storage. To edit and annotate your faxes, you can use editing tools, which let you add text and graphics or a signature, and to create custom cover sheets with your personalized logo.
