Appendix C – Creating Cover Pages
Cover pages for the FF240-IP are PDF forms. The FF240-IP will fill out the form fields that it knows about,
with information specific to the fax, and insert the PDF as the first page of the fax. In order to do this,
the field names in the form must match exactly with the field names that FF240-IP will try to fill in.
FF240-IP x30 models only know how to fill in text fields and ignores most formatting. For best results
make your form as simple as possible. You will probably have to send a couple of test faxes to get the
formatting the way you want. Check out the examples which are pre-installed on the FF240-IP for a
starting point.
Tips:
• Make sure your text fields are large enough to fit the information that you wish to be displayed.
If the text doesn’t fit in the field it will be truncated.
• Choose a standard font of reasonable size.
