Attaching documents while faxing, faxing multiple page docs

[MrMike]

I have two questions...

1) How can I scan & fax multiple page documents as a
single document like I used to be able to do using the
kodak/wang image scanning utility that was with Windows
98. It looks like I now have to scan each page into a
separate file, open one with the print/fax viewer, select
one to print, print, then select the remaining images to
send and send to the fax printer.

2) How to I author a document in word or excel and fax it
with additional image attachments. I used to be able to
attach additional images. It now looks like I have to
print the document, scan the document, and process as in
#1 above.

and XP was supposed to be an improvement.

XP Fax does not support faxing multiple attachments.
Your options are to create a multiple page document within a single
application and use the "Print to Fax" command, or send your Fax from
Outlook. It will allow you to fax multiple attachments.

Thanks for responding. However, please read the complete
problem and answer fully if possible. You said "create a
multiple page docuemtn within a single application". Are
you saying Windows XP does not come with a utility to
created a multi-page image document? If it does, what am
I missing?

I did answer fully. The answer was and still is no. Windows XP has no such
utility. If you have a scanner, it may have a utility that allows you to
create a single document from with multiple scanned images that you can
print to the fax printer. If you have Office XP, the Microsoft Office
Document Imaging application might allow you to create a multi-paged
document that you can print to the fax printer.
But you cannot fax multiple attachments with Windows XP's native fax sending
application unless you send from Outlook.
