From file to fax
- Add the document. PDF, iPhone photos (HEIC), JPG, PNG, TIFF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OpenDocument, RTF and text are accepted. Each fax can be up to 40 pages and 99 MB.
- Check the cover sheet. Read the recipient’s fax number carefully. Use a suggested field only after checking it.
- Preview the pages. Confirm that the right document is attached and that every page is readable.
- Confirm to send. FaxCan does not dial before you confirm.
- Watch the status. Live status shows dialling, sending and delivered. “Delivered” means the receiving machine confirmed the pages. You get a receipt by email with the PDF and delivery status.
Where the suggested number comes from
FaxCan reads your document and suggests the recipient’s fax number, Attn, company and Re. It only suggests fax numbers printed in the document. Tap a suggestion to use it. When unsure, it says “please check”. It never dials on its own.
Sending from email or an iPhone
For an email attachment, use the private address on a draft. You still return to FaxCan to preview and confirm. Follow the email steps.
You can upload an iPhone photo from the browser. See how to fax from an iPhone.
