Default Message format faxing

Hi,
I use to send faxes directly from Outlook 2000 through WinXP Fax
Made (published) a custom form to do so, in Plain Text.
Question:
can I make a custom form in HTML or RTF, just to get some more options as to
format my texts?
Which one is the best (html or rtf)?

Just remember that the Fax Service can not do any rendering, so your message
file type must have a printto verb defined for it to be rendered.
Typically for HTML that would be:
rundll32.exe drive:\WINDOWS\System32\mshtml.dll,PrintHTML "%1" "%2" "%3"
"%4"
and for RTF with Office 2003 it would be:
"drive:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\WINWORD.EXE" /n /dde
