Customizing CopiaFacts > CopiaFacts Scripting

The CopiaFacts scripting language is used to design custom fax-on-demand (FoD) and voice (IVR) applications. The language provides a rich set of commands and operators that allow you to control all aspects of the call. The scripting language also provides built-in support for xBase databases, execution of external programs with the ability to return results, and access to user-written DLLs. It also interfaces with two standard DLLs (F7DATABASE and F7SUPPORT) to provide additional database support using ADO and additional data manipulation and testing functions.

Scripting can also be used for special pre-processing and post-processing of outbound operations, and for post-processing of inbound faxes. This section provides an overview of scripting concepts. Each command mentioned is cross-referenced to more detailed documentation elsewhere in this manual.
