Online Fax
Online fax tools send documents digitally. Replace traditional fax machines with secure, fast, and reliable fax services online.
Online fax
Online fax lets you send and receive documents over the internet without a phone line. It matters because many offices still accept faxes for forms, signatures, and records. With a simple app, you can upload a PDF or photo, add a cover page, and send it to a fax number. You can also get a number to receive faxes as emails or files. This makes paperwork easy for families, schools, and small teams.
How do I send my first fax?
Sign up with a trusted service and verify your email. Scan or photograph your document so it is clear and flat. Upload the file, type the fax number with country and area codes, and add a short message. Preview the pages and press send. Keep the receipt for your records.
What files work best?
- Use clean PDFs.
- Avoid dark photos.
- Keep file sizes small.
- Check page order.
How do signatures work online?
You can draw your name with a finger, type it in a box, or upload a saved signature image. Place it on the right line and date it. Some groups ask for an initial on each page. Make sure the final preview shows every mark clearly before sending.
What about cost and limits?
Many services offer a small free trial and then charge by pages or by a monthly plan. International faxes can cost more. File size and page count may have limits. Choose a plan that fits your typical needs to avoid surprises.
How do I keep documents safe?
Use a strong account password and turn on two factor sign in if offered. Do not send sensitive data to unknown numbers. Delete old files you no longer need. If a fax is important, download and store it in a secure family or school folder.
Online Fax FAQ
What is online fax?
Online fax lets you send and get faxes over the internet without a phone line. You upload a file, enter a number, and it is sent through a service to a fax machine or inbox. Replies arrive in your email or app. It works with PDFs and images, and it keeps a copy so you can track what was sent.
How do I send a fax from my computer?
Create an account with a provider, open New fax, and add the recipient number with country code. Attach a PDF or image, write a short cover note, and press Send. Keep the receipt or status mail. If pages fail, reduce file size or use black‑and‑white. Test with a single page before sending many.
Which files can I fax online?
Most services support PDF, JPG, PNG, and sometimes DOCX. Use PDF for best layout. Keep pages under the size limit, and avoid tiny scans that look fuzzy. If you have many pages, combine them into one file to keep order. Simple, clear files send faster and reduce errors on older fax machines.
Where do received faxes appear?
Received faxes arrive in your account inbox and often forward to your email as a PDF. In the app you can sort by date, sender, or status. You can download, print, or resend. Keep your inbox tidy by archiving old items. This makes it easy to find the right page when someone calls about it.
How often should I check my fax inbox?
Check daily on workdays and set email alerts for new faxes. If you expect forms, check morning and afternoon. Clear spam and archive old items each week. Regular checks prevent missed deadlines and keep storage low. This habit helps teams move papers on time without standing by a physical fax.
Which is better: online fax or email with PDF?
Email with a PDF is fast and common, but some offices still need a fax for records or legal reasons. Online fax gives you a fax number and delivery receipts. If the other side demands fax, use online fax. If they accept email, send a signed PDF. Choose the way that meets the rule of the receiver.
