Copia Announces WorldFax
Circumvent costly and sometimes inefficient foreign phone companies
by polling for foreign faxes on a US phone call!
PRESS RELEASE
Wheaton, IL -- March, 1997 -- Copia International,
premier provider of fax solutions, has come up with a neat way to
circumvent costly and sometimes inefficient foreign phone companies
by polling for foreign faxes on a US phone call. Teaming their FaxFacts
software with Cardiff Software's TELEform(tm), Copia has
developed WorldFax, a fax callback system triggered without
voice or keypad interaction that polls (when prompted) foreign sites
for fax transmissions. As FaxFacts pulls the fax through,
Cardiff's TELEform character recognition software "reads"
the fax's destination from the first page of the fax and delivers
the remaining pages to the destination fax machine. The fax transmission
itself is accomplished using Brooktrout Technology's TR114 Series
of high-density Universal Port boards.
"This is a major development in the callback
market," enthuses Steve Hersee, Copia's president. "It's
as important to fax as callback was to international telephone service.
WorldFax is one of a kind in this market and will save international
companies thousands of dollars a year in phone costs. It also levels
the playing field when dealing with foreign telephone company monopolies."
"Brooktrout is committed to providing our customers
with reliable, high-performance products that enable them to offer
high-end network faxing solutions," said Andrew O'Brien, vice
president of Marketing and Business Development for Brooktrout.
"WorldFax is an exciting development for economical fax delivery
that takes advantage of the state-of-the-art functionality designed
into the TR114 Series of fax and voice boards."
Copia International is well-known for their FaxFacts
family of enhanced fax solutions for business. FaxFacts' Fax-on-Demand
product was the first fax-on-demand system developed and marketed
in the US. FaxFacts Server introduced LAN-based faxing, with
add-on modules like Mail Merge to Fax, Graphical Cover Sheet, Direct
Inward Dial (DID), and Fax Mail.
