I still use faxing at least a couple times a week.

A lot of companies (including banks) want faxes, do not offer public
email addresses, and do not want to be end document and graphic files
because of potential malware.

faxing is mainly yesterdays technology and unecessarily 'clunky' if you

I can't remember the last time I saw a fax machine being used (or it's
software eqivalent fax program).

Hi Art,
I just read your thoughtful, comprehensive blog entry *Death by 1000
Cuts.* Thanks. (I still have an HP 500 running -- on refilled
cartridges, of course.)

Companies I deal with insist on my communicating to them via fax. No
problem.

My office manager's office is off site, about 15 miles away from my
office. Companies mail statements to me; I then fax them to her. I'm
looking for a simple and quick way to send them as PDFs instead of
faxes. Possibly, with an all-in-one machine that has a *** feeder,
I can scan the snail-mail to PDF, and then email. I use a Mac with OS
X, so converting any document in my computer to PDF is easy.

Best,
Larry
