# The x11/viewfax port

## viewfax-2.6p1 – display files containing g3 and/or g4 coded fax pages

## Description

    viewfax displays one or more fax files in an X11 window.  The input
    files may be either raw, single-page faxes received by a fax modem
    with a program such as mgetty, or tiff files such as those used by
    hylafax.  The first (or only) page of "PC-Research"-style (DigiFAX)
    files produced by the ghostscript dfaxhigh or dfaxlow drivers can also
    be displayed.

    Input files using any common fax encoding such as group 3 (1 and 2
    dimensional) and group 4 can be displayed.

    The fax images are rendered at full resolution and then successively
    scaled down by a linear factor of 2 prior to display, until they fit
    on the screen.  The display can be controlled interactively using
    mouse and keyboard commands.
