moin moin Harold,
I figured you are busy with other things. I myself keep busy too.
I have looked in the garage. I thought I knew exactly where I had put the
fax modems. It turns out I do not. That's what I get for cleaning things
up :).
I did run into a fax project for Nextcloud.

I haven't looked at it, so absolutely no idea if it'll work for what you
need, but if it does, then you're not dependent on hardware old enough to
drive.

My apologies, I haven't gotten the chance to look in the garage. I should
have time today or tomorrow.

I would like that. Thanks. It be helpful to me to have my computer send
and receive fax’s.

moin moin,
I have a couple old external modems if you need one. I haven't ever used
them for fax, so no idea if that works. Actually, no idea if they work,
but I ran into them while cleaning up the garage a couple weeks ago.
If I can find them again I can take pictures to see if they look like
models that will work. If they will, I can likely run them up to you
next
week.
For editing uneditable images I've been using xournal since Ted
mentioned
it years and years ago. I mostly use it for PDFs, but I think I've used
it
for PNG and JPG as well. Perhaps I first converted them to PDF. Dunno.
Even if you still have to fax using a tool like xournal might at least
save you some dead tree time.

I'm looking to setup my computer for faxes sending and receiving. I'm
looking at using the U.S. robotics fax modem but unsure if the two fax
software made for Linux will support it as I would be using a USB
adapter for serial port connection to the fax modem.
Anyone out they have any suggestions or advise how I should setup my
Linux box for using faxes or what to watch out for type of problems.
This fax modem is the only thing I can think of as I am low income and
don't have much money for the month. I once used such a modem with
Linux a couple of decades ago when I use to run a ham radio gateway
back in Maine. But I used a script for the fax modem to make the
connection. So it will run with Linux.
