Printing to fax

The "usual" method of "printing to fax" relies on one of the scripts being
able to locate a "key phrase" which gives it the fax number to call.
This is fairly easy in WP but not in some other packages (eg Word)
You may need to tweek the faxfilter that comes in the mgetty package.
Cheers,
Stephen
