asterisk users - Jul 2005 - SpanDSP+astfax with multiple fax pages

I've searched the list and could not find any solutions even though
this question has been brought up.
I'm not able to fax out multiple pages of tiff, where only the first
page is received but not the other pages at the receivers end.

I have no problem with receiving multi pages at my side.
I'm using SuSe9.1, asterisk-1.0-RC2, spandsp-0.0.2pre18, tiff-v3.5.7.

Please advice. Thanks.

You can try this command to covert your document in the right tiff 
document. (works most times, not always)

/usr/bin/gs -q -sDEVICE=tiffg3 -sPAPERSIZE=a4 -r204x196 -dNOPAUSE 
-sOutputFile=/var/spool/asterisk/eumailing/0123456789.tif -- 
/var/spool/asterisk/eumailing/0123456789.pdf'

Thanks Paul,

Managed to fax out 2 pages of a tiff file in my first attempt.

I have not done intensive testing on this yet. I will try to convert
and fax more on this.
Meanwhile, I'm still hopping for other solutions.

We have still problems also when we use this command to convert the
document to the right tiff format. I sended 748 faxes, I think 213 where
ok, 358 got only the first page, 177 have failed (no answer busy or
something like that)

You can say that this is a very bad result!

We also can only send 5 faxes at the same time but we have 30 lines for
sending. (else we get: Call failed to go through, reason 0)

Hye Paul,

You were right. Only 1 of 5 attempts or sometimes 7 attempts managed
to go through the complete multi page tiff fax. This is bad.
Is there an other alternatives which can solve this?
Can HylaFax be able to fax multi page tiff file?

HylaFAX can (we ar doing this now), but not with E1 or T1. So you can only 
send with a maximum 2 channels. (with two default analog modems)
