Not all attachments can be rendered
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? |

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.

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.

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. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Clifford Zivi" wrote in message ... I'm not sure what you mean.

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.

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. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Clifford Zivi" wrote in message ... Interesting.

Not all attachments can be rendered
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...

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? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Clifford Zivi" wrote in message ... Ok.

Not all attachments can be rendered
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.
