Multiple Personalized Faxes for Mac

[jbrune]

I used FaxTool for years in OS9. According to their website, FaxTool is a stand-alone application that translates data and instructions, sent from FileMaker Pro 3.0, 4.x, 5.x, or 6.x, via AppleEvents, to FAXstf faxing software. It worked wonderfully!

Unfortunately, when I upgraded to OSX, I lost the ability to send personalized versions of the same fax to 100s of people (kind of like a mail merge, but a fax merge) and I don't really know how to write applescripts or what tools to use. I've requested they make an OSX version of FaxTool, but likely there isn't a sufficient market. I know that the logical response is to stop faxing, but I have customers who still prefer faxes. Does anyone have any recommendations or scripts they can share. My only request is to stay on the Mac platform. Thank you so much!

You could create a FMP database that will personalize the data, then use PageSender to Fax.

what is pagesender? does nobody have a script for filemaker to send a fax with faxstf?

Pagesender is a program that sends and receives faxes. I gave up on FaxSTF with the move to OSX as I had difficulties with the first OSX version.
