Hello,

I wrote a Virtual Fax Provider, that is known and loaded/lives by the Windows 2000 Fax Service. It displays a (virtual) fax device. So if an application prints to the fax service to my fax device, I get a path to the file with the TIFF representation of the application's document.
I've analyzed such by Windows Fax Service created multipage fax files. These miss in the tag 297 the total number of pages. So, every page has its order number and 0 as a total page number. Is that a known issue/bug? What can I do to let the Fax Service make the fax files better?

Regards,
Alexander
