However, most of the employers want e-mail or web site applications
these days. Fax is rarely used for that now. I used to use a fax
program (Faxworks on OS/2) quite a lot, but it's been a while since I've
had to send or receive a fax. In fact, the last time I did either, was
to help someone test their fax modem. Nowadays, I just use e-mail. If
someone want's a copy of a paper document, I just scan and send the
image as a pdf attachment (I've sent a couple of dozen recently). In
fact, the KDE Kprinter can print to pdf and e-mail in one operation.
