    PDF995 will convert other document types to .pdf. Faxzero will send .pdf or Word document files.

    ..so what I need to do after downloading PDF995..scan to Foxit reader? I used to have 2 printers choices with PDF5: 1 samsung printer 2 PDF5. I switched to PDF5 and virtually printed the document save it in my documents and then choose that from the faxzero pane to fax it.
    this download will open a 2d printer choice? because Faxzero will need a virtual printed image to send, otherwise wont.
    thanks

    If the file you want to fax using FaxZero is already in .pdf or .doc format, you don't need to do anything else to it when using FaxZero.

    If you have a file in some other format, you will need to install PDF995 or some other free program to print to .pdf files, then use that program to convert the file. PDF995 and other programs like it work as a printer driver. When viewing the file you want to fax, select Print, and select the PDF995 printer, then select the printing options you want and print the file, specifying the folder location where you want the .pdf file saved.

    Note that to install PDF995, you need to download and save 2 files, then run them.

    open PDF995 from desktop
    Not sure what you are talking about here. Did you download and run the 2 installer files for PDF995? You need the Pdf995 Printer Driver and the Free Converter.

    The file you posted is just the help file for PDF995. However, your list of printers now shows at least 3 .pdf printer drivers, so you should be all set to create .pdf files from anything you can print.

    so from file I click on print and on the subsequent print window opening I choose PDF995 so a second saved file will appear on my documents with a PDF995 nomination, and that will be the one to choose on the faxzero save file . right?

    Any file that contains the information you want to fax and has a .pdf or .doc file extension can be faxed using FaxZero.
