Chapter 1 – Introduction  
The FaxFinder Fax Client Software lets you deal with faxes in a new and convenient way. You can now  
send faxes simply by printing files from application programs (word processors, graphics programs,  
Notepad – essentially any program that can print). You receive fax messages as graphics file  
attachments to email messages from the FaxFinder Administrator or Attendant. You will view these  
graphics files (PDF or TIF) using either a PDF viewer or a TIFF viewer. The PDF viewer could be any  
commercial viewer or any open source PDF viewer. The FaxFinder is shipped with the Multi-Tech Tiff  
Viewer as part of the suite of FaxFinder client software. Other TIFF viewers are available from many  
different sources.  
This arrangement lets you send and receive faxes at your own desk and deal with them entirely  
electronically if you so choose.  
Accessing the FaxFinder Client Software  
After the FaxFinder Fax Client Software has been installed, it will be on whenever your computer is  
running, unless you specifically turn it off. An icon for the FaxFinder Fax Client Software will appear in  
the ‘tray’ area in the lower right corner of your computer screen.  
You must click on this icon and select “show FaxFinder Client Software” to make the program’s main  
screen visible. You can also start the FaxFinder client software from the Start | Programs menu.

However, you can send and receive faxes without viewing the main screen.

Chapter 1: Introduction  
Sending Faxes  
To send a fax from an application program, you must change that application program’s target printer to  
“Multi-Tech FaxFinder” (this option becomes available as soon as the FaxFinder client software is  
installed on your PC). Then, when you invoke the Print command from your application software, the  
document will be effectively scanned or “captured” electronically in preparation for going out as a fax --  
instead of being printed on paper. Shortly after you invoke the Print command, the FaxFinder Send Fax  
screen will appear. That’s where you specify the recipient(s) of the fax message.  
The FaxFinder Send Fax screen also lets you add common items to the fax message: a cover page, a  
brief comment, etc. The FaxFinder Fax Client Software also includes an Address Book in which you can  
store information about parties to whom you may regularly send faxes. The FaxFinder Send Fax screen  
gives you access to the Address Book so that all of the recipient’s contact information (company name,  
street address, voice phone number, etc.) can be added automatically.

Chapter 1: Introduction  
Receiving Faxes  
To receive a fax from the FaxFinder system, you simply open the email message received from the  
FaxFinder Administrator or forwarded from a party who serves as a “FaxFinder Attendant” for your  
network. The way you receive fax emails (either directly from the Administrator or as forwarded from the  
Attendant) depends on the kind of phone service you have (whether through a PBX or not and depending  
also on PBX features). The fax email you receive will open either into the PDF viewer program, the Multi-  
Tech Tiff Viewer, or another TIF-viewing program that you specify. You can then view the fax message,  
print it, save it, forward it , etc., as needed. (Only TIF files can be forwarded; PDF files cannot be  
forwarded through the FaxFinder system.)  
These are the basics about FaxFinder. The FaxFinder Fax Client Software has many capabilities. This  
manual describes them and shows examples of how they work. You will find sections on most common  
operations in the table of contents. We also present detailed descriptions of each software screen.  
The FaxFinder is really pretty easy to use. We hope you enjoy it. If you have problems, call our Tech  
Support Department at 1-800-972-2439.

Software Configuration  
To configure the FaxFinder Client Software, you must first install the software on a PC and then associate  
that installed client software with one or more specific FaxFinder hardware units.  
Installing FaxFinder Client Software  
A. Insert the FaxFinder Product CD into the CD-ROM drive of the client PC. If the CD does not auto  
start, use Windows Explorer to navigate to your CD drive and launch the installation program by  
double-clicking on cd_start.exe file on the CD. From the menu presented, click the Software button.  
From the new screen presented, select the Client Software button to install the Multi-Tech FaxFinder  
Client software for using the FaxFinder unit.  
Important: Should you have any old versions of the FaxFinder client software installed, please uninstall  
that prior to installing the new version. For your convenience, there is a mass uninstaller available for  
push uninstalls on the product CD. It is in the Software folder and is called  
Remove_InstallShield_FFClient.msi’.

Chapter 2: FaxFinder Client Software Configuration  
Associating Client with Specific FaxFinder Unit(s)  
Sometimes more than one FaxFinder unit is connected to an Ethernet network. In some cases, certain  
client users might be assigned to some FaxFinder units and not assigned to others. After the FaxFinder  
client software is installed, you must associate it with one or more FaxFinder units. This procedure shows  
you how to make this association so that faxes may be sent from a particular FaxFinder unit to the email  
inbox of your PC. To do this procedure, you will need to know the IP address of the FaxFinder unit. Be  
aware that an individual FaxFinder client user can be associated with more than one FaxFinder unit. This  
could easily be the case in an office that is large and/or an office that has a great deal of fax traffic.  
1. At the main screen of the FaxFinder Fax Client Software, click on Edit and select “Add Fax Server.”  
2. At the Add Device Address screen, in the “Select Server” field, highlight “FaxFinder.”  
In the “Enter Address” field, enter the IP address or domain name of the FaxFinder unit that the client  
will use.  
A client can be associated with more than one FaxFinder unit, but the associations must be  
established one at a time.  
3. Enter, in the appropriate fields, the Username and Password that the client will use when accessing  
this FaxFinder unit. If the client is to be associated with multiple FaxFinder units, a different  
Username and Password could be established for each. However, in most cases, it is advisable (for

the sake of simplicity and convenience) to use the same Username and Password for all FaxFinder  
units.  
NOTE: The Username entered here must match the entry used in the “User ID” field of the Phone  
Book screen in the FaxFinder Server Software. The password entered here must match  
the password entered for this client in the Password Administration screen in the  
FaxFinder Server software.  
Click OK.  
4. A new FaxFinder entry should appear on the “Device Status” tab of the FaxFinder Fax Client  
Software screen.  
The status of the newly registered FaxFinder unit should momentarily go from “Logging in” to “Idle.”  
If it goes to Login Failure, then one of two things is wrong:  
a. The IP address or domain name is wrong. If that is the case, delete that entry (by right-clicking  
DELETE), and enter a new one; otherwise,  
b. The Username/Password combination may be wrong. Verify that the client Username/Password  
combination (accessible by right-clicking and selecting Properties on the FaxFinder listed in the  
Device Status tab of the client software) matches the User ID/Password combination assigned to  
the client-user by the FaxFinder Administrator.

Disassociating the Client from a Specific FaxFinder Unit  
In this procedure, you will un-do the procedure “Associating Client with a Specific FaxFinder Unit.” This  
situation might occur when changes are being made in the network faxing system. In any event, this  
procedure severs the tie between your PC and a specific FaxFinder unit so that you will no longer be  
connected to it for sending fax messages. (Faxes can be received in email form from the FaxFinder  
server, despite disassociating from the FaxFinder server, as long as the receiving party is entered in the  
FaxFinder Phone Book.) In cases where the client is currently associated with more than one FaxFinder  
unit, you will need to know the IP address of the specific FaxFinder unit from which you want to  
disconnect.  
1. Open the FaxFinder Client Software program and go to the Device Status tab. Select the FaxFinder  
unit from which you want to disconnect (you can identify the FaxFinder unit by its IP address or  
domain name). Right-click on it and select delete.  
2. Your FaxFinder Client Software will no longer be able to send faxes through this particular FaxFinder  
unit.

Chapter 2: FaxFinder Client Software Configuration  
Disabling and Re-Enabling a Client’s FaxFinder Service  
Disabling a FaxFinder’s service to a specific client is simply a temporary version of disassociating the  
client from that FaxFinder. When a client has disabled the FaxFinder’s service to that client, the  
client/user cannot send faxes through the FaxFinder. (Faxes can be received in email form from the  
FaxFinder server, despite this disabling, as long as the receiving party is entered in the FaxFinder  
Phone Book.) The client can easily re-establish FaxFinder service by toggling the Disable command  
(now shown with a “ ” beside it), thus enabling service once again.  
1. Open the FaxFinder Client Software program and go to the Device Status tab. Select the FaxFinder  
unit from which you want to disconnect temporarily (you can identify the FaxFinder unit by its IP  
address or domain name). Right-click on it and select disable.  
2. When disabled, a check mark will appear beside the disable command.  
3. To re-enable the FaxFinder unit for your use, that is to avail your PC of its service once again, open  
the FaxFinder Client Software program and go to the Device Status tab. Select the FaxFinder unit to  
which you want to re-connect. Right-click on it and select disable. You will now be re-connected to  
service by this FaxFinder unit.  
Sending Test Fax  
To verify that the software installation has succeeded, you should use the FaxFinder client software to  
send a fax to a regular fax machine (preferably a local fax machine). To do so, follow the instructions for  
the “Sending a Fax” procedure in Chapter 3.

Chapter 3: FaxFinder Client Software  
Operation  
Introduction  
This chapter describes the things that a client user can do with the FaxFinder system. Three software  
programs are involved: the FaxFinder Client Software, the Multi-Tech Tiff Viewer (or designated PDF  
viewer), and the Multi-Tech Cover Page Generator. The programs work together with the FaxFinder  
Client Software acting as the hub of activity. The FaxFinder Client Software interfaces with the FaxFinder  
Server, has a user interface, and calls upon the Cover Page Generator and viewer program for their  
special functions. When sending faxes, the FaxFinder Client Software calls up the Multi-Tech Cover  
Page generator if cover pages are requested. When previewing outgoing faxes, the PC’s operating  
system calls up the designated TIFF viewer to display the outgoing fax. When viewing received faxes,  
the PC’s operating system calls up the appropriate viewer (PDF or TIFF). The choice of file types (PDF  
or TIFF) is made in the FaxFinder Server software. Note that client users can choose to display either on  
the Multi-Tech TIFF viewer or on a different (non-Multi-Tech) TIFF viewing program (see Step 7 of  
“Installing FaxFinder Client Software” in Chapter 5). Likewise, if the FaxFinder system distributes  
incoming faxes as PDF files, the client can designate which PDF viewer to use.

Chapter 3: FaxFinder Client Software Operation  
Sending a Fax  
To send a fax by printing from an application program on a client PC, follow the steps listed below.  
1. The FaxFinder client software must be installed on the PC. (See the section “Installing FaxFinder  
Client Software” earlier in this manual.)  
2. The client PC and the FaxFinder server must both be connected to the same Ethernet LAN system.  
3. The association must be made between the client PC and the FaxFinder Server. (See the section  
“Associating Client with Specific FaxFinder Unit(s)” earlier in this manual).  
4. After installation, the FaxFinder Fax Client Software program will be running whenever the PC is on.  
You can view the FaxFinder program's main window by clicking on the FaxFinder icon at the lower  
right of the PC’s monitor screen in its Application Tray. Then select “Show FaxFinder Client  
Software.”  
Note: The user can shut down the FaxFinder program by selecting "exit" either from the  
tray icon or from the main FaxFinder program screen. If the program has been  
shut down, it can be restarted from the Windows Start menu.)  
However, you can send faxes through the FaxFinder without bringing up the FaxFinder Client  
Software screen.

Chapter 3: FaxFinder Client Software Operation  
5. At the application program (for example, a word processing program or drawing program), print to the  
FaxFinder.  
Setting the destination of the printing job varies from program to program. For the common Notepad  
text editor program, for example, you must set the destination printer in the Page Setup screen. In  
most cases, however, the destination printer can be set in a Print menu that appears when each  
printing job is initiated.  
Leave Properties/Preferences at Default Settings. After the FaxFinder has been chosen as the  
target printer, a ‘Properties/Preferences’ screen can be accessed by clicking on either “Properties”  
or “Preferences” on the Print dialog box (for most application programs, it’s a “Properties” button; for  
a few, it’s a “Preferences” button). However, we strongly advise you not to change any  
parameters on the Device Settings tab or the Profile Manager tab of that screen. If you have  
changed any parameters, click on the “Restore defaults” button to reset the parameters.

6. After the printing has been initiated by the application program, the FaxFinder Send Fax screen will  
appear.  
Click on Address Book. When the Address Book screen appears, click “New.” At the New  
Contact screen, enter the recipient’s name, fax number, and any other contact information you want  
to retain.  
The recipient’s fax number should be entered as you would dial it from a phone on the public phone  
network (as from a residential phone). Click OK. At the Address Book screen, highlight the  
recipient in the list and click “Select.” The party will appear in the “Recipients” list in the FaxFinder  
Send Fax screen.  
Additional recipients can be added. The same fax message will be sent to all recipients.  
Streamlined Approach. You can also add a recipient in the FaxFinder Send Fax screen by clicking +  
to launch the Enter a Fax Recipient screen where you can enter Name and Fax Number only. You  
can then choose to send the fax with or without adding the recipient to your Address Book.

You can also access the Address Book directly to add and edit entries. At the FaxFinder Fax Client  
Software screen, go to Edit | Add Contact.  
7. If you want to include a cover page with your fax, click in the “Use Cover Page” checkbox. Enter  
information as needed in the “Subject” and “Cover Page Notes” fields.  
Automated fields, like sender information (individual name, company name, street address, phone  
number, fax number, etc.) should be entered in the Address Book. The Address Book is accessible  
in the “Options” menu of the FaxFinder Fax Client Software screen. For more information about  
addresses and the automated fields used in cover pages, see the section “Setting Up Your Address  
Book” later in this chapter.

Chapter 3: FaxFinder Client Software Operation  
Scheduling Fax Transmissions  
The FaxFinder allows you to send a fax immediately or delay its transmission until a later time. Perhaps  
the most common motivations for delayed faxing are to enjoy the lower phone rates that may apply at  
night and on weekends or to broadcast faxes after business hours to avoid tying up fax transmission  
resources during the busiest weekday hours. In any case, it is easy to schedule faxing for a later time.  
1. Send the fax via FaxFinder in the normal way (see the procedure “Sending a Fax” earlier in this  
chapter).  
2. When the FaxFinder Send Fax screen appears, enter a recipient for the fax either from the Address  
Book or by entering Name and Phone Number (fax number) in the appropriate fields and clicking Add  
Recipient.  
3. In the FaxFinder Send Fax screen, the recipient’s name and fax number will appear in the “Recipients”  
list and the “Schedule” pane will no longer be grayed out. Click Schedule. The Fax Scheduling  
screen will appear.  
4. Click to uncheck the “send immediately” checkbox.  
5. Enter the date and time at which you want the fax to be sent.  
6. Click OK in the Fax Scheduling screen and then click Send Fax in the FaxFinder Send Fax screen.

Chapter 3: FaxFinder Client Software Operation  
Putting Pending Faxes on Hold and Removing the Hold  
Suppose you have sent a fax to 10 recipients and, shortly after clicking on Send Fax, you realize that  
there is something incorrect in the content of your fax (it may be something you want to add, delete, or  
change). You can prevent any pending faxes from being sent by selecting “Pause Scheduler” in the File  
menu of the FaxFinder Fax Client screen. Suppose that 2 faxes have already been transmitted  
completely and a third fax is in progress when you click “Pause Scheduler.” The FaxFinder will finish the  
third fax but will not fax to recipients 4-10. The pausing function allows you to see details about the fax,  
to view the fax again, and to delete the fax if you so desire.  
As long as “Pause Scheduler” is selected, no fax message will advance beyond “Pending” status and, so,  
none will be sent.  
To rescind or call off the hold on pending faxes, open the FaxFinder Fax Client Software. From the File  
menu, select Pause Scheduler. The scheduler will resume normal operation and faxes will be sent.  
Consider this example.  
1. A fax is sent by FaxFinder to three recipients.

2. While the fax is being sent to the second party, the client user realizes that there is something wrong  
with the fax. She brings up the FaxFinder Fax Client Software screen, opens the File menu, and  
selects “Pause Scheduler.”  
At that point, the FaxFinder will complete the fax in progress that is being sent to the second recipient.  
However, the fax to the third recipient is still listed as “Pending” in the Pending Faxes tab of the  
FaxFinder Fax Client Software.  
The client user can take one of several actions.  
She could click on “Pause Scheduler” again to cancel that command. In that case, the pending fax  
would become active and could not be stopped.  
She could select the fax in the Pending Faxes screen and right-click on it to bring up a menu.

She could “delete” the fax, which means that that fax transmission would never be completed.  
Pause is canceled on reboot. If she shuts down her computer for the day while leaving this fax in a  
“pending” state, that fax will be sent shortly after booting up her computer again, that is shortly after the  
FaxFinder client software is functioning again. So, any faxes put in the pending state by using the ‘Pause  
Scheduler’ command will be sent the next time the FaxFinder software is activated.  
Canceling a Fax  
If the fax is in progress … Open the FaxFinder Fax Client Software. On the Device Status tab, select  
the FaxFinder unit that is in the process of sending your fax. In the list, right-click on that FaxFinder entry.  
In the menu that appears, select Abort.  
If the fax is pending Open the FaxFinder Fax Client Software. On the Pending Faxes tab, select the  
fax transmission that you want to cancel. In the list, right-click on that fax message entry (the recipient  
will be shown). In the menu that appears, select Delete.  
To cancel the current fax and simultaneously put a hold on sending any other faxes from your PC, select  
Abort and Pause. To resume faxing, go to the File menu and cancel the pause by selecting  
Pause Scheduler. Any pause applied to a pending fax is cancelled when the computer is rebooted.  
Any fax left pending with the FaxFinder Scheduler paused will be sent as soon as the FaxFinder client  
program opens when the PC is turned on again.  
Setting Fax Retry Number and Interval  
You can set the FaxFinder client software to retry a fax transmission if it fails on the first attempt. You can  
set both the number of additional attempts and the interval between each additional attempt. You can set  
these parameters as follows.  
1. In the FaxFinder Fax Client Software screen, open the File menu and select “Options.” When the  
Options screen appears, click on the Fax Retry tab.  
2. Set the number of retries and the interval between these repeated attempts and click OK.

Sending One Fax Containing Multiple Documents  
The FaxFinder allows you to include multiple documents in a single fax transmission. Those multiple  
documents could come from the same or different application programs.  
1. Consider the example below where a text file and a drawing file are included in the same fax with a  
single cover letter. Here’s how this multiple-document fax was sent.  
a. The user printed the text file to the FaxFinder from the Notepad text editor program.  
b. The FaxFinder Send Fax screen appeared. However rather than completing the fax  
transmission, the user opened another application program.  
c. The user printed the graphic file to the FaxFinder from the Macromedia FreeHand drawing  
program.  
d. When the user returned to the FaxFinder Send Fax screen, both documents appeared in the  
“Documents” list.  
2. In the “Documents” pane of the FaxFinder Send Fax screen, you can add a cover page, re-arrange  
the order of the files, or delete items from the list of files to be faxed.

“Documents” pane of the FaxFinder Send Fax screen, click +. You could then browse to find, for  
example, a fax that you had received earlier, had stored as a TIF file, and now want to forward to  
another party. (Faxes received as PDF files cannot be added to the list.)  
4. When all documents to be transmitted have been listed in the Documents list, click Send Fax. The  
documents will be sent in the order listed.

Forwarding a Fax  
Suppose you receive a fax using the FaxFinder system. Suppose that fax message is something you  
want to pass along to another party in fax form at a later date (for example, Rocky Mountain Construction  
Company receives tax information about lots on which it intends to build houses). In this case, you  
should note the name of the TIF file in question. You can then browse to that TIF file and re-send it as a  
fax message.  
Note: Forwarding of faxes applies only to TIF files; PDF files cannot be forwarded.  
To forward a fax, follow these steps.  
1. At the FaxFinder Fax Client Software screen, go to the File menu and select “Send Fax.” The  
FaxFinder Send Fax screen will appear.  
2. In the Documents pane, click “+”. Then browse to the TIF file to be sent as a fax.  
Click Open.  
3. The selected file will appear in the “Documents” list in the FaxFinder Send Fax screen.

Receiving a Fax  
The FaxFinder Server delivers incoming faxes to client PCs in their email inboxes.  
Since faxes received through the FaxFinder are transformed into email attachments, they can be directed  
anywhere email goes. The final recipient can be inside the office or across the ocean.  
Fax reception works differently when the FaxFinder is operating in Automated Routing Mode than in  
Manual Routing Mode. In Automated Routing Mode, faxes come directly to client/users; in Manual  
Routing Mode, all faxes come to an attendant who forwards them to the intended recipient.  
Receiving Faxes in Manual Routing Mode  
In Manual Routing Mode, all faxes are emailed to an attendant using a single fax number.  
1. The incoming fax arrives in the attendant’s email inbox as a message with an attachment.  
2. The attendant uses email to forward the message to the appropriate recipient. Recipients could be on  
the local Ethernet network or outside of it.  
3. The recipient opens the email message. The incoming fax message takes the form of a graphic file  
attachment. The FaxFinder Server has assigned the file an automatic file name.

4. The incoming fax arrives in the client’s email inbox as a message with an attachment.  
The email message is marked as being from the FaxFinder Administrator.  
The sender’s “Remote ID” and the client’s name appear in the “Subject” line of the email message.  
(The Remote ID comes from the sending fax machine and is typically the sender’s fax number or  
name.)

5. The FaxFinder client opens the email message. The incoming fax message takes the form of a  
graphic file attachment. The FaxFinder Server has assigned the file an automatic file name.  
6. The FaxFinder client can open the file or save the file.  
a. Opening the fax message graphic file. Incoming fax messages are PDF or TIFF files. These  
graphics files are automatically associated with a PDF or TIFF viewer program that has already been  
chosen. The client can open the fax email attachment directly in the viewer program.  
b. Saving the fax message graphic file. In some viewer programs, the client can do a ‘Save As,’  
renaming the graphic file attachment with a meaningful name for subsequent viewing or for  
forwarding (applicable to TIFF files only).  
7. The client views the fax message in the (PDF or TIFF) viewer program.  
Receiving Faxes in Automated Routing Mode  
In Automated Routing Mode, the FaxFinder Server delivers incoming faxes to client PCs in their email  
inboxes.  
1. A PBX extension number must be assigned to the client PC at the FaxFinder Server.  
2. For fax reception, the client PC and the FaxFinder server need not both be connected to the same  
Ethernet LAN system. (A sales representative, for example, could receive faxes sent to her home  
office fax number even though she is traveling overseas, if she uses an Internet email account.)  
3. A fax document is sent to the PBX extension number of a client/recipient on the FaxFinder system.  
The fax call is routed to the FaxFinder server and there converted to a PDF or TIFF graphic file. The  
graphic file is attached to an email message that is sent to the intended recipient’s email address (as  
specified in the FaxFinder Phone Book).

Setting Up Your Address Book by Synchronizing with  
Outlook  
What Synchronization Means  
During synchronization, entries from the FaxFinder Client Address Book and from the specified folder of  
MS Outlook are merged into one list saved in both applications. When “Synchronize With Outlook”  
command is invoked in the FaxFinder Client software, each list is updated with changes from the other.  
Synchronization Procedure  
1. In Microsoft Outlook, view the folder from which you want to be able to transfer fax numbers to the  
FaxFinder Client Address Book. Confirm that you want those entries in your FaxFinder Client  
Address Book. If so, proceed. (For example, you might select the “Contacts” folder in Outlook as  
your source of existing fax numbers).  
2. In the FaxFinder Fax Client Software, go to File | Options |Advanced and click on “Enable Outlook  
Sync.”  
3. Click on Browse. Select the desired folder from the Select Contact Folder (Outlook:) screen. Click  
OK. If a confirmation screen appears, click OK.  
At the Options screen, click OK.

4. In the FaxFinder Fax Client Software, go to the Device Status tab and select Outlook Synchronizer  
in the “Device” list.  
5. Right-click on Outlook Synchronizer and select Synchronize with Outlook.  
The attempt to synchronize the FaxFinder Address Book with MS Outlook will cause Outlook to  
present a security screen at which you must click the “Allow access for” checkbox and choose a  
<time period> from the drop-down menu. For a large address book, five minutes should be adequate  
time for the synchronization to be completed. Then click Yes.  
The Outlook Contact information will be copied into the FaxFinder Address Book. Entries from the  
FaxFinder Address Book (if any) will also be copied into the Outlook Contact list. A relationship will  
be created between the corresponding entries for future synchronizations.  
The Outlook Synchronizer feature has many options. For further details, see the Administrator User  
Guide.

Setting Up Address Books with CSV Files  
Files in CSV format (comma separated values) consist of spread-sheet data presented in ASCII (plain  
text) form. As such, the data can be transferred between different application programs. Many common  
programs (like MS Excel and MS Outlook) can do both importing and exporting of CSV files.  
The FaxFinder Client software can also do both importing and exporting of CSV files.  
Typically, the reason a FaxFinder client-user would export his/her FaxFinder Address Book into a CSV file  
format would be to share entries with another FaxFinder client-user. A FaxFinder client-user might also  
import a CSV file from another application (for example, both MS Outlook and MS Excel files can be  
exported into CSV format) in order to expand his/her FaxFinder Address Book.  
To import a CSV file, a template file is needed to map the fields of the source file into the appropriate  
corresponding fields of the destination database. For client-to-client imports, a standard template file is  
included with the FaxFinder client software making such imports very easy. There is, after all, a one-to-  
one correspondence of the data fields.  
When importing to your FaxFinder Address Book from other sources, there generally will not be a one-to-  
one correspondence between the data fields and so a customized template will be needed to map the  
data fields properly.  
Suppose you had a list of potential customers exported to CSV format from an MS Excel spreadsheet  
and, for each customer, there were 10 fields of data, including their names and fax numbers. To import  
this information into the FaxFinder Address Book (which has 9 fields of data in an established order), you  
would have to specify that each customer name and fax number from this CSV file gets transferred into  
the Name and Fax Number fields of the FaxFinder Address Book. Other fields from the customer list  
might fit into other FaxFinder Address Book fields, as well, but some fields may not fit.

1. In the FaxFinder Fax Client software, go to Address Book | Import. The Address Book Import  
screen will appear.  
2. Under “CSV Import file,” click Browse. A list of CSV files will appear. Select the CSV file that you  
want to import. (The CSV file will likely be a file outputted from MS Outlook or a file containing  
contacts from another client-user of the FaxFinder system.)  
3. A delimited file can be exported with or without a first row that defines the columns. Check the First  
Line Headings checkbox if the import file has first line headings.  
4. In the Delimiter dropdown menu, choose the delimiter used in the CSV file (comma, semicolon, colon,  
or tab).  
5. Under CSV import field mapping template, click Browse. Select the template file (the file extension is  
.yml) that is needed to map the entries of the CSV file into the fields of the FaxFinder’s New Contact  
screen. (If the CSV file is one that was exported from another FaxFinder client user, you will need the  
FaxFinder Client Import_template.yml template file.)

For example, if the first record has a literal value of “Name” in the Name field, a literal value of  
“Organization” in the Organization field, etc., then your import CSV file did indeed have First Line  
Headings and you may have failed to check the “First Line Heading” check box. To clean up your file  
import, you must correct this by checking the First Line Heading checkbox.  
Using Preview Import to Correct Import Problems Corrected File.  
Here the import file had included first-line  
headings but the First Line Headings checkbox  
was not checked. The consequence of this  
mistake is to have a meaningless entry in your  
Address Book.  
After the First Line Headings checkbox has  
been checked, the meaningless entry is no  
longer present.  
If you attempt to import with the wrong delimiters (suppose the import CSV file is delimited by commas  
and you attempt to import it using semicolons as the delimiters), then an error message will appear.

Importing CSV Files into FaxFinder Address Book with a Customized Template  
CSV contact lists can be created in many applications (MS Outlook, MS Excel, Notepad, etc.). In general,  
those contact lists may contain information that does not fit directly into the format of the FaxFinder’s New  
Contact screen.  
Suppose a useful CSV file exists but its contents (data fields) are not in the same order as data in the  
New Contact screen. Or suppose that useful CSV file contains extra information beyond the fields of the  
New Contact screen. In such cases, you will have to create a template file (with file extension .yml) that  
properly maps the useful information from that CSV file into the format of the New Contact screen.  
1. Consider a CSV file that has been exported from MS Excel.  
Compare the field structure of this file to that of the New Contact screen of the FaxFinder client Address  
Book.  
Because this CSV file contains extra fields (like “Position” and “Cell Phone”) that are not in the FaxFinder  
Address Book New Contact screen, a new template will need to be created to map its information into  
the FaxFinder Address Book.

3. Click Define Template. The Template Mapping screen will appear.  
The Imported Fields drop-down box presents a list of all of the fields present in the CSV file.  
4. Click on the Imported Fields drop-down box and select the field name from the CSV file that matches  
(or most closely matches) the name of the New Contact screen field into which that information will be  
placed.  
5. Then click + to map that selected field from the CSV file to the corresponding field in the New Contact  
screen.

6. When one field name from the drop-down list has been added (with the + button), the next CSV field  
name in the drop-down list will appear. Click + on the next line to associate that CSV field with the  
next New Contact screen field (if the association makes sense). Sometimes the field names will differ  
but it will be appropriate to map the CSV field to the New Contact screen field anyway. (For example,  
the “Company” field from the CSV file can logically be mapped to the “Organization” field of the New  
Contact screen.)  
7. When the field names from the CSV file cannot logically be mapped from the CSV file to the New  
Contact screen (for example, the “Position” field from the CSV file cannot be logically mapped to any  
New Contact screen fields), skip that CSV field.  
8. Search in the Imported Fields drop-down list for appropriate CSV fields and use the + button to map  
such CSV fields to New Contact screen fields as needed.  
9. Use the button on any line to delete an unwanted mapping.  
10. The CSV file may have more or fewer fields than the New Contact screen.  
In any event, you must map a fax recipient Name and a Fax Number from the CSV file to the New  
Contact screen to create valid entries in the FaxFinder Address Book.

Transferring an Established Standard FaxFinder Address Book to a New Client-  
User  
A FaxFinder Address Book can be created in any of several ways: new contacts can be added manually,  
they can be added when faxes are being sent, they can be added by synchronizing with Outlook, and  
they can be added by importing CSV files.  
In many cases, it will be desirable that all members of an organization have access to a ‘starter’ Address  
Book with a common/standard set of contact entries that might be useful to everyone in the organization.  
Thereafter, each individual client-user can modify his/her Address Book as needed.  
Therefore, it may be important to have an established ‘standard’ Address Book to furnish to a new client-  
user. To provide such a ‘standard’ starter Address Book for new client-users, follow the steps below.  
1. The FaxFinder Administrator (or other keeper of the standard Address Book) should export his/her  
Address Book with an appropriate file name.  
At the FaxFinder Client software, go to Address Book | Export. Choose the required delimiter from  
the “Delimiter” drop-down list. Then, at the Address Book Export screen, click Export.  
Save the CSV file with an appropriate filename.  
2. The FaxFinder Administrator should then send the standard Address Book CSV file to the new client-  
user by email. Include advice about whether or not First Line Headings are used in the standard  
Address Book.  
3. The new client-user must put the Standard Address Book CSV file into a convenient directory on  
his/her computer.

4. At the FaxFinder Client software, the new client-user should go to Address Book | Import. At the  
Address Book Import screen, the client-user should browse to the established CSV import file at the  
top of the screen and browse to the standard client-to-client import template file in the lower part of the  
screen (the file name will be FaxFinder Client Import_template.yml or something similar and this file  
will be available as soon as the client software is installed).  
5. The new client-user should click Import. The organization’s ‘standard’ Address Book will then be  
installed and available for use by the new client-user.

Using Stock Cover Pages  
Faxes are often accompanied by a cover page that specifies from whom it was sent, to whom it was sent,  
the date, and other details about the sending and receiving parties. The FaxFinder system offers several  
ready-made (stock) cover pages that can be used for this purpose. These stock cover pages can also be  
modified or customized to meet individual needs (see “Creating or Modifying Cover Page Styles” later in  
this chapter).  
In this section, we present an example of using a stock cover page.  
1. We will send the fax from the Windows Notepad program. (In this program, one sets the printer by  
going to File | Page Setup | Printer | Properties | Name and, in the drop-down list, set “Multi-Tech  
FaxFinder” as the target printer, and click OK).  
2. In Notepad, we select Print to send the file as a fax via the FaxFinder.

3. When the FaxFinder Send Fax screen appears, it will list the document we want to fax in its  
“Documents” pane. Next we must specify a recipient.  
The recipient could either be chosen from the Address Book (by clicking on the Address Book button)  
or specified directly by clicking on + in the Recipients pane and completing the Name and Fax Number  
fields.  
In this example, we will choose the recipient from the Address Book by highlighting the entry and  
clicking Select. Note the detailed address information about the recipient that had been stored when  
this party was entered into the Address Book (you can view the details on any Address Book entry by  
clicking Edit from the Address Book screen). Recipient contact info from the Address Book entry will  
appear later in the automated fields of the cover page. Sender contact info from the Options menu will  
also appear on the cover page. Which details are included in the cover page depends on the cover  
page style used. The “fax stamp” at the top of each sheet of the fax (which includes sender, recipient,  
and time info) is inserted automatically based on information from the FaxFinder server software and  
from the recipient fax machine.

customizing an existing stock cover page style template.  
Creating New Cover Page Templates  
1. Open the Cover Page Generator program. Go to Start | Programs | FaxFinder Client Software |

3. Several types of objects can be added to a cover page file. These are listed in the Insert dropdown  
menu.  
The commands to create these objects can be invoked either here or from buttons on the Tool Bar.  
We will invoke various commands from these toolbar buttons throughout this procedure.  
4. Decide on the categories for which you want automated fields on the fax cover page. Generally  
speaking, you will want to include information about the Sender and the Recipient. For each type of  
information, you will want a label in “Static Text” and an “Edit Box” (“Field Text”) into which the  
automated information will go. Information about the sender will be automatically transferred from the  
FaxFinder Client Software Options screen onto the cover page; information about the recipient will  
come to the cover page from the FaxFinder Address Book’s Contact screen or from the FaxFinder  
Send Fax screen (if the Add Recipient button is used to specify the fax recipient); and occasional  
information will come from the FaxFinder Send Fax screen (for the subject of fax and the comment)  
and from the client PC (for the date of the fax).  
To insert an automated field, you must double-click on the “Edit Box” button and then drag open a  
box at the desired place on the screen. Typically, one would place the label of the category using  
the Static Text icon first and then locate the Edit Box beside it. (The “Edit Box” button invokes the  
same function as the “Field Text” command in the Insert menu.)

6. Enter the field label in the Static Text box. Be sure to allow enough room for the size of font you have  
chosen. If the box is too small for the font size, the text will be cut off.  
To select font, the font style, and font size, use the  
cursor.  
You can also access font settings from the Settings dropdown menu.  
To align the text to the left edge, right edge, or center of the box, use the  
cursor.  
For example, you might create a static text item of the word “Date.” To move the box, click on it and  
move it when the 4-direction cursor appears. To expand or contract the box, click on it and drag an  
edge or a handle until the desired size/shape is achieved.  
7. Select the “Edit Box” (or “Field Text”) cursor labeled ab  
and drag to open the desired field.  
Double-click on the box you have opened. The Properties screen will appear. Scroll down the list  
and highlight the field type (listed in the “Type” drop-down list) that you want on the cover page.  
There is no need to use the “Title” field. Click OK.  
You will not type anything in the Edit Box that appears on the screen. However, be sure to make the  
Edit Box large enough for the font size you have chosen. If the box is too small for the font size, the  
text will be cut off.  
To follow our example, you would select “Date” to insert a date field next to the “Date” label you have  
previously placed on the page.

You might want the automated field value to be placed on a line or in a rectangle. If so, you could  
use the line cursor to put a line beneath the edit box or use the rectangle cursor to place a rectangle  
around the edit box. You can place lines, rectangles, and ellipses on the page for any purpose.  
Rectangles and ellipses can have a solid fill or a shading (called “hilight”). These graphic functions  
are described in the table below.

8. To add a graphic file to the cover page template, click on the Image icon.  
Then browse to the directory that contains the desired graphic file. Files of type bmp and tif can be  
inserted into cover pages.  
Insert graphics files into your cover page template as needed.  
9. Save the file to the Cover Pages directory in your operating system. The .cpg file must be saved in  
this location in order for it to be accessible to the FaxFinder client software. When saved to this  
location, the file name of the customized cover page template you have created will appear in the  
“Cover Page Style” drop-down list on the FaxFinder Send Fax screen.  
10. We advise previewing and printing your custom cover page template using the Multi-Tech Tiff Viewer  
program rather than the Template Editor program.  
The illustration below shows how the fields specified in the Template Editor program will be filled out  
when the template is used at the FaxFinder Client Send Fax screen. The Object Types (from the  
Properties screen that appears when you double-click on an Edit Box) for common field types are  
specified.

Modifying Existing Cover Page Templates  
Note: While all five stock cover page styles can be readily customized, the styles  
“PlainComplete” and “PlainShort” are especially well suited to customization. In most  
cases, one can start with these files and simply add one’s own company name in text or  
insert one’s graphical company logo.  
1. Open the Cover Page Generator program. Go to Start | Programs | FaxFinder Client Software |  
Cover Page Generator. You can also open the Cover Page Generator program from the FaxFinder  
Fax Client Software program by opening the Edit menu and selecting “Edit Cover Page Template.”  
2. In the File menu, select “Open.” Browse to the directory into which the FaxFinder client software has  
been installed. Typically, this will be C:\Program Files \ Multi-Tech Systems \ FaxFinder Client  
Software \ Cover Pages. Select a cover page template from the list.  
For our example, we will use the cover page template file FaxComplete.cpg.  
3. In the File menu, select “Save As” and rename the file, saving it in the ‘Application Data’ directory for  
the FaxFinder client software (this is a default directory). The default directory will vary for different  
Windows operating systems. (For Windows 2000, this will be C:\Winnt \ Profiles \ <username> \  
Application Data\ FaxFinder Client Software \ Cover Pages. For Windows XP, this will be  
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Fax Finder Client\Cover Pages.)  
In all cases, however, the new cover page template must be saved in the default location in order for  
the FaxFinder Send Fax screen to detect it and make it available for use.

For our example, we will rename the file rmc1.cpg, for the purposes of our fictitious company, Rocky  
Mountain Construction, Inc.  
4. You can use the Tab key to skip from field to field in the template. Note, however, that any values  
added to template fields will be overwritten by values specified in the Address Book (in “New Contact”  
screens launched from Edit | Add Contact in the FaxFinder Fax Client Software program).

5. Add company logo at top of cover page.  
For our example, we will add the graphic file “ff-rocky-mtn-logo1.bmp” to the cover page.  
In the Insert menu of the Template Editor, select “Image.”  
Browse to the location of the graphics file to be used. Click Open.  
Move the + cursor to the desired location of the graphic. Then click and drag to size the graphic.  
Click and drag on the cursor dots on the periphery of the image to resize it and set its  
vertical/horizontal aspect ratio.

7. In the File menu, select “Save As” and overwrite the file using the same filename used in step 3,  
saving it in the ‘Application Data’ directory for the FaxFinder client software. (For Windows  
NT4/2000, this will be C:\Winnt \ Profiles \ <username> \ Application Data\ FaxFinder Client Software  
\ Cover Pages. For Windows XP, this will be C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application  
Data\Fax Finder Client\Cover Pages.)  
For our example, we will overwrite the file using the file name rmc1.cpg, which befits the purposes of  
our fictitious company, Rocky Mountain Construction, Inc.  
8. To use your customized template when sending a fax, you must click “Use Cover Page” in the  
FaxFinder Send Fax screen. Then scroll through the “Cover Page Style” list to find the file name of  
the custom template you have created. In our example, it is rmc1.

Reporting Failed Faxes to the Administrator  
Occasionally clients will receive email messages from the FaxFinder that pertain to faxes that have failed  
partially or entirely. That is, some or all of the intended pages of the fax may arrive in a form that cannot  
be read. Here is the sequence of events you may encounter and the proper response.  
1. The client user receives an email message from the FaxFinder about a partially or wholly failed fax sent  
to him/her.  
2. Advise the sender of the fax to re-send all or part of the fax.  
3. If the fax was only partially a failure, then TIFF/PDF files for the successful pages will be attached. If  
any pages of the fax failed, then an additional file will be attached to the email message. It will have a  
name like modem0modem1_date-time.txt. This is the modem log file.  
4. The modem log file contains information about the “conversation” between the sending modem and the  
FaxFinder’s receiving modem. This information may be valuable to the FaxFinder administrator in  
protecting the fax system and preventing future errors.  
5. The client user should forward the modem log file to the FaxFinder administrator in an email message.  
The FaxFinder administrator’s email address should be viewable in any fax you have received via the  
FaxFinder.
