FAXINFO(8C)FAXINFO(8C)NAMEfaxinfo - print information about a received facsimile
SYNOPSIS
/usr/contrib/bin/faxinfo [ -n ] file.tif
DESCRIPTIONfaxinfo prints descriptive information on the standard
output about a received facsimile file. For example:
/var/spool/fax/recvq/fax00017.tif:
Sender: +14159657824
Pages: 3
Quality: Normal
Page: North American Letter
Received: 1996:01:19 13:51:02
TimeToRecv: 0:39
SignalRate: 14400 bit/s
DataFormat: 2-D MR
This information is typically included in the notification
mail generated by the faxrcvd(8C) script when a facsimile
is received by HylaFAX.
The -n option suppresses the printing of the filename.
NOTES
The information that faxinfo prints is obtained from the
tags stored in the TIFF image that is written by the
HylaFAX software. If faxinfo is presented with an invalid
TIFF image it may print uninteresting information. Simi-
larly if a TIFF image that was not written by HylaFAX is
supplied as an argument then only partial information may
be printed--this is because HylaFAX stores certain infor-
mation in private tags that other TIFF writers may not
emit.
