How to view received faxes using the "Thumbs viewer" in NetCFax Pro 




BACK TO INDEX PAGE

NetCFax does of course provide a normal fax viewer program, but in NetCFax Pro 3.xx only there is also what we have called a "Thumbs" viewer that can be opened by clicking the Thumbs button on the Received faxes drawer of the faxes cabinet.

This is a very useful viewer if you need to check/read several received faxes, perhaps to route them or to add comments to them, without having to close the normal viewer and open it again for the next fax.

By clicking the Thumbs button, the viewer will open and display the currently selected received fax.  By default this viewer is configured to automatically "link" to the received faxes list, so that when you select another received fax in the list, it is automatically loaded into the thumbs viewer for you without the need to close the viewer down and reload it again.  The Options menu on the viewer itself lets you change this behavior if you want to do so.

If the fax is a multi page fax , the viewer has next previous buttons to let you view all of the pages, and you can print directly either the current page or the entire fax directly from the viewer if required.

If you resize this window, the fax page is always changed to fit into the window to make it as easy as possible to view, and this is a gray scale image which is quite often easier to read.

    

The horizontal and vertical blue arrows buttons and the rotate button shown on the window above also let you invert faxes both vertically and horizontally so you can quickly view or print faxes that were sent upside down correctly.  If you have NetCFax Pro or PRO+ you can even save the changes made back to the fax server so that everyone else sees the corrected image.

In the new Pro and PRO+ release shipped in January 2007, we have added both a "Deskew" option to "straighten" faxes that are not aligned correctly, and a negate function to let you switch between  B/W and W/B which can be useful with some faxes that contain difficult to read information.
