Resume Fax
Send your resume from your email account using AirComUSA. You can send your resume fax to multiple numbers with a single email. Send the email to an email address that we provide when you register for an account. Place the ten digit fax numbers you wish the resume fax to go to in the body of the email. Attach the documents you wish to send as a fax.
Sending a resume email to fax with AirComUSA is as easy as sending an email.
From your email client, typically MS Outlook© or Outlook Express©, open a new
email window by selecting File > New > Mail Message. You can also click the
button, or press
Ctrl-N on your keyboard.
While this white paper illustrates this process using Microsoft© Outlook Express©, you can use any email client, including on line clients like Yahoo! and Hotmail.

Outlook
Express© will open a blank email message. In the 
field, type the email
address AirComUSA© gives you when
you registered for the service. This address will direct your documents to our
system, which will then distribute your documents to the fax numbers you
specify.
In the 
field, type a brief summary of your email.
Finally, attach the resume you want to fax to this email. You can attach these files by clicking and dragging them to the space between the subject field and the text formatting fields.

You
can also attach files by clicking Insert, File Attachment. This will open the insert attachment dialogue box. Select
the appropriate directory and file(s), and then click 
.
Your attached files may be any of the following formats:
- doc - Microsoft Word Document
- tif and tiff - Tagged image file
- prn and ps - PostScript
- pdf - Adobe PDF
- txt and text - Plain text
- html - HyperText Markup Language
Creating .pdf and .tif files requires specialized software. Virtually every program allows you to save your resume as a text file using the Save As command. From any program with a print menu, you can create a .prn or .ps file.
* NOTE - The .prn file must be created by the correct printer driver. Other PS, post script, drivers will work, but HP LaserJet 4P/4MP PS is known to work. It is a typical driver that can be found on a windows disk.
To create a .prn file, open the print dialogue window by clicking File, Print.

The order in which you attach your files determines how they will come out of the recipient's fax machine. You should attach your cover page first, and then any additional pages of your resume you may have.

In the body of your message, type the fax number(s) you are faxing your documents to. If you are faxing your attachments to multiple fax numbers, place each fax ten digit number on a separate line.
Figure 7: Email to send a resume fax to multiple fax numbers
Because our system looks for 10-digit fax numbers, you should always include the area code. In addition, you don't need to worry about whether to include parentheses, periods or dashes between the area code, prefix and line number; our software ignores such dividing punctuation.
Be sure to delete any signature files you may be using; otherwise, our system will send your resume fax to the phone numbers listed in that file.
When
your email is ready, click 
. AirComUSA©
will then distribute your attached resume to the fax numbers you listed in the body
of your message.

When our servers have successfully sent your resume fax to each number, you will receive a report email confirming that the email to fax went through. If the email to fax goes through immediately, the body of this report email will look like figure 9.
