Creating Cover Pages for FFx30
FaxFinder x30 models use PDF forms for cover pages. FaxFinder fills out the form fields with information
specific to the fax and inserts the PDF as the first fax page. To do this, the field names used in the cover
page form must match exactly with the field names that FaxFinder uses. FaxFinder x30 models fill in text
fields and ignore most formatting.
