Since many contractors still do not use email I am compelled to fax all
written and image communications to them. Some of those images come in the
form of jpg. I was hoping there was a way to fax the jpg directly rather than
take the additional step of saving it to a tif format and then faxing it.
Thats all...
Thanks for trying to help.

You do not understand. The fact that the picture was taken with your digital
camera is irrelevant. Your operating system still has a program that is
designated as its default for displaying and rendering JPEG files. Only you
know what that program is. If you don't know, then look at your file
associations for JPEG files. That is the program that is responsible for
rendering your file. Not the Fax program. Not Outlook.
One must wonder why you are trying to fax a JPEG and whether you know what
the likely outcome will be.

As I said, these are pictures from a digital camera. There is no program
associated with creating them. Additionally I fax through outlook.
Printing
to the fax driver does not provide me with the documentation I need.

As Hal said, use the Print function in the application in which the image
was created to Print to the Fax Printer. That will take care of
rendering.

Thank you, but I don't know what rendering a jpeg image means.
Let me try to ask it in a slightly different way.
I know how to create, modify, use in various programs, "save as" to a
different file types, all tif, jpeg, bmp, pdf, etc. file types. All of
these
file types work as attachments to outgoing faxes except jpeg. What does
"rendered" mean and can you explain how to do it?
