Custom Cover Pages
Near the bottom of the fax envelope, there is a popup menu allowing you to select, create and add your own custom cover pages.
Select a cover page
Choose No Cover Page to send your fax without a cover page. Choose Default Cover Page to send your fax with pagesender's default cover page. Or, choose any of your custom cover pages which appear in the menu to use those. For example, you might choose My Custom Cover to use that as your cover page.
Create a custom cover page
To create your own custom cover page, choose New Cover Page… Name your new cover page and specify where it will be stored. Your new copy of the default cover page will open in TextEdit. Edit your new cover page to suit your tastes.
If any of these tags appear in your cover page, they will be replaced as follows:
| <PAGESENDER-SENDER> | Will be replaced by your long user name. (The Name field as it appears in the Users panel of the System Preferences.) |
| <PAGESENDER-RECIPIENT> | Current recipient of the form First Last (Company) or First Last if no company is specified. |
| <PAGESENDER-RECIPIENTS> | List of all recipients of the form: First Name (Company), Second Name (Company). Note: Pay careful attention to how you indent this field. We recommend you turn on the ruler ("Show Ruler" in the "Text" submenu of the "Format" menu in TextEdit) and ensure this field is indented properly. |
| <PAGESENDER-REGARDING> | Contents of the Re: field for this fax |
| <PAGESENDER-MESSAGE> | Contents of the Message: field for this fax |

Add your own cover page
To add a cover page created in another application, choose Add Cover Page… You may choose any RTF or RTFD document, including those created by TextEdit, AppleWorks and Microsoft Word. Note: When saving cover pages in AppleWorks, you must add your own ".rtf" extension for those documents to appear.
The same list of tags above will be replaced if they appear in your added cover page.
