4.8.3 Using Text API commands
In addition to embedding recipient information in the document, further commands can be embedded
at the top of the document. For example, to schedule a fax, specify fax resolution etc.
To do this, enter commands at the top of the document. GFI FaxMaker automatically removes these
commands on detection.
For more information regarding the Text API commands refer to the GFI FaxMaker API manual
available from: http://www.gfi.com/faxmaker/manual.
4.9 TextAPI & XMLAPI
TextAPI and XMLAPI enable you to send faxes using text or XML files (APIs). You can configure third
party software to generate APIs automatically and transmit faxes in bulk. GFIFaxMaker picks up and
transmits all APIs stored in a custom folder.
This process automation can be used for a wide variety of industries and applications, such as
healthcare, retail and banking. For example, in your invoicing software, configure a text report
template for account statements and balances. Periodically, generate this report for each client that
owes money to the company and store it to the GFIFaxMaker TextAPI folder. GFI FaxMaker
automatically transmits the statements to their intended recipients.
