To create an infopkt stream file to test the fax functionality of your
hardware and software:
mkinfopk -o fax.ips doc 1 ascii fax.c
Where:
For fax-receiving applications, an
INFOPKT_DOCUMENT_PARAMETERS
infopkt begins each new G3 page within it. If the application uses a
nonstandard receive format (see the BfvFaxSetReceiveFmt
function in Volume 4, Fax Processing, Bfv API Reference Manual), it
must also include a G3_STRIP_PARAMTERS infopkt.
For fax-transmitting applications, an infopkt stream must begin
with an INFOPKT_DOCUMENT_PARAMETERS infopkt. Any type of
infopkt or combination of infopkts can follow the first
INFOPKT_DOCUMENT_PARAMETERS infopkt.
Within a fax-transmitting application, a new page is indicated when
one of the following infopkt types is encountered in an infopkt
stream:
INFOPKT_BEGINNING_OF_PAGE
INFOPKT_DOCUMENT_PARAMETERS
INFOPKT_T30_PARAMETERS
INF0PKT_FAX_HDR
Figure 3 on page 50 illustrates how to create an infopkt stream that
transmits G3 data. G3 data includes MH, MR, MMR, and PCX
formats.
fax.ips Is the name of the output infopkt stream file that contains
the ASCII file fax.c (the sample fax application program
included on your distribution CD).
doc Is required as the first infopkt in a stream (1 is its
argument). See
mkinfopk on page 153 for more
information about doc.
ascii Indicates that the input file fax.c is an ASCII formatted
file.
fax.c Is the input file.
