Converting TIFF-F Files: nfxcnvrt

Name

nfxcnvrt

Purpose

A utility that converts a TIFF-F file to an output TIFF-F file with the specified attributes for encoding, resolution, page width, and bad line management.

Usage

nfxcnvrt input_file output_file [convert_encoding
[convert_resolution [convert_page_width
[convert_bad_line]]]]

Description

The default attributes constitute capabilities that are found in every fax terminal. Therefore, any file processed by nfxcnvrt using the default attribute values will be sendable to any fax terminal, regardless of its capabilities.

Unless you specify different attributes in the command line arguments, nfxcnvrt uses the following default values:

  • convert_encoding     NFX_ENCODE_1D

    
               
            
  • convert_resolution    NFX_RESOLUTION_LOW

    
               
            
  • convert_page_width   NFX_PAGE_WIDTH_A4

    
               
            
  • convert_bad_line     NFX_BAD_LINE_ACTION_REPT

A screen message displays the number of pages processed.

You can set convert_resolution to:
  • NFX_RESOLUTION_HIGH
  • NFX_RESOLUTION_LOW
  • NFX_RESOLUTION_SUPER_HIGH

You can set convert_encoding to:
  • NFX_ENCODE_1D
  • NFX_ENCODE_2D

You can set convert_page_width to:
  • NFX_PAGE_WIDTH_A4
  • NFX_PAGE_WIDTH_B4
  • NFX_PAGE_WIDTH_A3

You can set convert_bad_line to:
  • NFX_BAD_LINE_ACTION_DROP
  • NFX_BAD_LINE_ACTION_PREV
  • NFX_BAD_LINE_ACTION_TICK

If there are only bad lines in a file, they can be fixed by running nfxcnvrt and specifying identical output and input formats.
