It's the story of my life. Everytime I try something it
seems I get, "Funny, no one every tried that before". I
finally have it working nicely. I'm able to send a PDF
file with hyperlinks. In an email it works great since
the receiver can use the links, and with email it looks
good and the print dialog does not pop up. Perfect.
Thanks for all the help. I'm sure well go back and forth
again sometime soon. You DA man!!!

Shouldn't matter. It's not very crowded in here.
You need to be aware, if you aren't already, that
integration between
Outlook and the Fax Service has been largely ignored in
both of the last two
development cycles. As a result it is not very robust
and is a bit of a mess
with little or no documentation. We're hoping it gets
more attention in
upcoming versions.
I don't really see many users trying to fax complicated
graphics from
Outlook--scanned documents is about it. --

OK. I'll play with this for a while. If I need more
help should I'd start another thread?
-----Original Message-----
You can't. It's that very print routine that is
required
for rendering of
graphic files.
The only graphic files I've been able to attach
without
invoking the print
routine are TIF files.

Yes. It's there; mine is identical to yours. (I
just
took out the reg entry for MSpaper and it had no
effect.
maybe I'm nuts. I'd sware it did before.) Anyway,
I
go
to outlook, type in a [FAX:number], attach an HTM
file
that I saved from my website, and send the email. I
get
the print dialog box. If I hit cancel, I get
the 'CAN'T
BE RENDERED' error. If I hit OK, it sends fine.
It's
the same if my email format is RTF or html. So now
what?
How do I get rid of that print dialog box?
-----Original Message-----
But if you look at File Associations for HTML
files,
isn't there a printto
verb already defined for your OS?
Mine has one:
rundll32.exe C:\WINDOWS\System32
\mshtml.dll,PrintHTML "%
1" "%2" "%3" "%4"

I am sending web pages as attachments. So I
went to
Internet Explorer, went to the web page, did a
FILE,
SAVE
AS, HTML web page only. This creates an html
file. I
have several of those files. I also have a word
file
that I could probably convert to html also.
Then I
am
just using those pages as attachments. I don't
know
how
I could use "print to fax" in that situation.
If I
`print to file' for the shared fax and get a .prn
file
does that help me at all? Secondly, when I
say "print
dialog", it is that window that lets you select
which
printer you want to print with. It pops up once
for
each
attachment. The Shared fax is already hilited
and
all
I
have to do it click OK. So, I'm very close to
getting
this to work. I probably just need a better
PrintTo
verb
somewhere. Any ideas?
-----Original Message-----
The only sure way to do this is to use "print to
fax"
from the application
that created the document. Any reason you can't
do
that?
What print dialog do you mean and what steps
invoke
it?

Ok. Here is what I'm trying to do. I have an
Access
application that produces a report and I would
like
to
send a report and one or more attachments
which
may
include: A Word file (maybe rtf), a web page
(html
or
htm). I am sending this via email those
customers
that
have an email address and via fax for thos
customers
that
have a fax number. The attachments (or pages)
change
depending on the customer.

When I added the mspaper.document stuff the
html
rendered
when sending a fax. That's the first time
that
ever
worked, but the print dialog pops up.

So, since you seem to be the man that knows
all
about
this
topic, the question is... What the heck do I
have to
do to
get this to work properly?
-----Original Message-----
Those instructions are only for Outlook 2003
and
only
for
TIF files. The
method you use will depend on the format of
the
attachments you want to
send. That's why it's better to use whatever
application
your OS has set as
the default application for opening and
printing
that
particular file type.

You need to be more specific about what you
want
to do
and with what Outlook
and fax software.

Interesting. I just came across a couple
of
other
items
you wrote to other people on this very
subject.
You get
around. I just created the following key:





[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MSPaper.Document\shell\printto\c ommand]
and set it to:

rundll32.exe DRIVE:\WINDOWS\system32
\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_PrintTo /pt
"%1" "%2" "%3" "%4"

Not I can even send an fax with HTML
format,
which
is
exactly what I want to do. But, the print
dialog
box
comes up for every page. I will try your
other
instructions also. How can I get rid of
the
print
dialog
box?
-----Original Message-----
Use Windows Explorer View File types
to
look
at the
file associations
for the type of file you want to render.
See
what
the
default program is for
the open verb for that file. Create a
printto
verb
for
that file type using
the same application.

I'm not sure what you mean. I have
Access,
and
programs
like Paint, Adobe, Corel Draw, etc. I
keep
seeing
references to PrintTo, like you just
made,
but I
do
not
understand what to do next.
-----Original Message-----
Neither Outlook nor the Fax Service can
render
graphic
files for fax
transmission. You need an application
that
can
do so
using its print
routine.
You may be able to specify a printto
verb
if
you
have
an
application
available that has such a print
routine.
Do
you?

I am using Outlook automation to send
faxes
via
Outlook.
I need to send faxes with either
a .jpg
or .html
attachments but I get the error `Not
all
attachments
can
be rendered`. I have my email format
sent
to
send
in
Rich Text Format and it works fine
until I
try an
attachment other than .rtf. I keep
seeing
something
about needing to define a "printto
verb"
if I
want
to
send other formats. Can you tell me
what I
have
to
do
in
order to be able to send these types
of
attachments?
