Set Up and FAQ's
Receiving a fax:
Just give out your fax # and anything sent will appear in your inbox within seconds.
PDF or TIFF?
We like to receive faxes as a PDF. That's the default setting on your initial setup. You can change it anytime by logging into your account.
Sending a fax:
Log into your account at Faxtopia and click the 'Web to Fax' button. Enter the recipients name and the subject. Then enter one or more fax numbers.
— Be sure to enter 1 plus the number with no spaces or dashes.—
Then click on 'browse' and select any document on your computer.
Click 'Send Fax Now' and you will receive a confirmation within seconds of a successful transmission.
Lost faxes:
If you need a copy of a previously sent fax just log into your account and click the report button. Find the fax you want and simply click 'resend'. Faxes are saved for 30 days and then permanently deleted.
Monthly Limit: 500 pages, inbound or outbound anywhere in the U.S.
Overseas faxing: There is no additional charge for faxes sent overseas. However, your monthly limit will be reduced based on rates of individual countries. i.e.; 500 pages to anywhere in the US or Canada equals approximately 400 pages to Great Britain and only 200 pages to China.
Some countries are blocked due to a history of phone charge fraud issues including Kazakhstan, North Korea, Belarus, Cambodia, Tuvalu, and others.
Signing a fax online:
While software exists to allow digital signatures (Adobe Illustrator) there is really no practical option to getting ink on the page. The best practice is to just print whatever page needs a signature, sign it, and then manually fax or mail it.
Support:
Not much support is typically needed with a web fax system. Everything happens on our servers, which are monitored continuously. If you ever need to contact us please send an e-mail to
support@faxtopia.com
