Convert FAX to EPSF

The FAX file extension, short for "facsimile", is primarily associated with digital fax documents. These files are typically saved in TIFF format and are used to store images of documents sent or received via fax software. Historically, fax technology allowed the transmission of scanned printed material over telephone networks, a practice that became widespread in the 1980s and 1990s. Today, FAX files facilitate the digital handling of these documents, enabling easy archiving and viewing with compatible image viewers.

An EPSF, or Encapsulated PostScript File, is a graphics file format used primarily in the publishing and printing industries for embedding high-resolution images within other PostScript documents. Introduced by Adobe Systems in the late 1980s, EPSF files enable seamless integration of complex visual elements, maintaining quality and device independence. They encapsulate both vector and raster graphics, allowing detailed illustrations and photographs to be embedded without loss of resolution, facilitating professional-quality output across various platforms and devices.
