CAF on Java

Posted by Mahesh Anandan on October 17, 2001 at 1:04 PM

I see you posted a message about being successfull with java telephony api. I have been recently looking at the CAF api requiring WinFax Pro 9.0. The current version is 10.0 and I am not sure if this is a good investment or not. Any luck on this Faxing stuff on java yet. I see 1000+ of java programmers lookinf for an answer. i am also looking at www.xfax.com. its quite expensive compared to winfax pro. I would apprecite if you could let me know how far are you on this fax thing. any info would help.

thanks in advance.
