I concluded that the best one for simple fax sending (print to fax) and at a
good price is this one- rks fax

http://www.rkssoftware.com/rksfax/overview.html

note = this is not the same as mighty fax, since that is not compatible with
vista
they rewrote a new program and called it rks fax

simple effective and costs only $19

I searched a couple of hours, so I am posting this to save anyone time who
is looking for a simple fax program for vista

I may have the incredibly rare need to send a fax next week.
I've never used it but will Windows Fax and Scan not do the job?
It'll be a PDF I wish to send.
Wireless connection.

Cheers

unlike XP home, Vista home premium does not have fax, only business and
ultimate has that..

this is just another stupid vista thing...
that has caused much frustration among users

Oops apologies I am running VBiz.
The subject line slipped by me.

Currently it does not support Vista 64 bit (only Vista 32 bit is
supported). Snappyfax makes a Vista 64 bit version.

Hi Folks

If you want a FAX program that you can 'try before you buy', is reliable,
has good facilities and is reasonably priced, I would recommend snappyfax.
I have been using it (with Vista Home Premium) now for several weeks and am
delighted with it:-

The one that Stevey posted was free, and works on both 32 and 64-bit.
