Call blocking allows you to exercise control over the fax numbers that 
users can send faxes to. GFI FAXmaker checks the call block rules 
before each fax transmission, and will not send any faxes starting with 
numbers listed in the call-blocking list.  

This means that if you want to prevent certain users from making 
international fax transmissions, you only need to insert the 
international dial-out number (for example 00, 09 or 011). 
Alternatively, you can block specific fax numbers.  

To create a call blocking rule: 

1. In the GFI FAXmaker configuration, Advanced > Call blocking node, 
right click and select ‘New’. 

 

2. Enter the number that you wish to block and click OK. 

3. Now a dialog will appear in which you can select which users you 
wish to apply the rule to. Select the user (s) or group who is not 
allowed to send faxes to this number. 

4. Click OK to create the rule. 

The OCR feature allows you to convert incoming faxes to text and 
insert the converted text into the body of the received fax report or as 
a separate text attachment. The converted text is then used for OCR 
routing depending on your configuration. Searching for incoming faxes 
becomes much easier, because you can use the search features in 
your e-mail client or in your email archiving solution to retrieve past 
faxes quickly. Without OCR, the actual text in the fax can not be 
searched because it is stored as an image.  

The OCR feature is based on an OCR engine licensed from Scansoft 
Inc., and is licensed separately from the base FAXmaker license. For
