@@DEFER=<time>
@@PRIORITY=<priority>
This ability to submit a document to the fax server now but tell it to wait until later to send it, or to alter the first-come, first-served order of the queue is supported in the more advanced level of the Windows 2000 Fax Server API, but for now, we are using the simpler version of the interface which does not support it. Both commands are simply ignored.
@@FINE
This is also ignored. By default all faxes are sent in the "fine" mode nowadays.
@@INCLUDE=<filespec>
This is not supported but not ignored either. The command itself will appear in the output (which is how all unrecognized commands are handled.) Note that you can get a similar effect using the PREFIX and SUFFIX feature in the A-Shell printer ini files.
@@IMAGE=<filespec>
@@OVERLAY=<filespec>
These commands are not supported because they are superseded by the more powerful A-Shell GDI printing commands METAFILE and IMAGE. Note, however, that while the @@IMAGE and @@OVERLAY commands worked only with AMOS BMP and PCX image formats, METAFILE works only with Enhanced Windows Metafile format and //IMAGE works with Windows BMP, PCX, TIF and JPG. Also note that IMAGE requires a license for the third-party imaging library.
Another reason for not implementing the @@IMAGE and @@OVERLAY commands is that they were used almost exclusively for creating cover pages. Under the Windows 2000 Fax Service environment, cover pages are created in the Cover Page Editor, which has its own mechanisms for including graphics and images.
@@TELNO=<name>
The ability to define names (which are then translated to actual fax numbers via faxlst.dat) is not supported. If this feature is important to you, please let us know as adding it would not be particularly difficult.
@@DISTRIBUTE=<filespec>
Distribution lists are also not currently supported, but could be if demand warrants.
@@NEWDOCUMENT
This is also not supported. If you want to send multiple documents, send them as multiple files and print requests.
