Suggestions for smaller Fax TIFF

Post by need2fax »

Hey Guys,

It's my first post but I've been lurking these forums for a while now - very helpful community.

I've been using IM to generate my Fax TIFFs but I'm wondering if anyone has any specific suggestions on how I can lower the durations being achieved on the line, by generating smaller TIFF files without too much quality loss. I'm currently executing:

Code: Select all

convert -density 204x196 stest.pdf -monochrome -compress group4 -threshold 80% test2.tiff
Is there a particular variable I can use use which will result in a smaller TIFF and potentially faster durations?

Looking forward to hearing your feedback :D
