Video transcript
Yes, you can fax a Word document directly, without printing it or converting it to a PDF yourself. You simply attach the file. Let me show you how. mcpfax automatically converts your Word document into a PDF and then faxes it. Just keep in mind: a fax is black and white, so colors turn into shades of gray. In the chat with Claude, you attach the Word file and give the fax number. Before sending, Claude shows you the document, the page count and the price, here three pages for one euro forty. Confirm with yes, and the fax goes out. As soon as all pages have been transmitted, the status changes to delivered, and the transmission report arrives by email. You can also skip the chat and use email: write to the fax address shown on screen and attach the Word file. That works from Outlook, Gmail or any other email program. One tip: take a quick look at the layout first. If you want to see exactly what will arrive, save the file as a PDF yourself and fax that instead. You'll find the link to mcpfax in the description. Subscribe to the channel, where we also show you how to fill out a PDF form and fax it.
