BT Cloud Work Fax supports more than 50 file types, e.g. .jpeg, .pdf, .psd, .doc, and tiff. Click on Supported formats to see the list of supported file types that can be attached to your fax. The recommended size for PDF files (sending and receiving) is 11 KB. The total file size must be below 20 MB and is less than 200 pages, although we would recommend sending 50 pages in separate batches. See Supported Fax Attachments | BT Cloud Phone for more information.

The time required for transmitting fax messages depends on the quality and content of the fax that will be sent. For documents that contain mostly text, it usually takes approximately 1 minute per page for the document to be delivered. When sending documents that contain graphics (scanned pages of documents), or for faxes sent to a slow fax line, it may take 5 minutes per page or more to be delivered.

You will receive fax transmission results via email.

    NOTE: You can enter multiple recipients, and separate each recipient using a comma (,). It is advisable to limit the number of recipients to 50 per batch.

  6. Click Browse then locate the files to send. You can attach files saved locally on your PC. You can also attach files from your cloud storage - Box, Dropbox and Google Drive.
