README for YajHFC 0.6.3 ======================= ABOUT ----- YajHFC (Yet Another Java HylaFAX Client) is a client for the HylaFAX fax server (http://www.hylafax.org/) written in Java. Features: * Faxing documents in PostScript, PDF and various other formats * Polling faxes * Support for generating cover pages from templates * Viewing sent and received faxes * Phone book (entries can optionally be read from SQL databases or LDAP directories) * Visible table columns may be selected in a dialog * Supports ten languages: Chinese, English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Polish, Russian, Spanish and Turkish Homepage: http://www.yajhfc.de/ email: Jonas Wolz <[email protected]> INSTALLATION ------------ Requirements: * JRE 5.0 or higher (Java 11 recommended) * A running HylaFAX server in your network (of course ;-) ) * Some program to view TIFF files (also see the FAQ) * Optional: A PostScript viewer (e.g. Ghostview), GhostScript and tiff2pdf (from libtiff-utils) To install YajHFC just download the yajhfc-0_6_3.jar file to some folder on your file system. To execute it, use: "java -jar yajhfc-0_6_3.jar" (In Windows you usually can just double click the jar file as well.) LICENSE ------- YajHFC is free software licensed under the GPL. See the file COPYING for details. SOURCE CODE ----------- For instructions describing how to build YajHFC from source please see the file BUILDING.txt in this directory. YajHFC uses the following packages: (1) The gnu.hylafax library (core and inet-ftp package) from http://gnu-hylafax.sourceforge.net/ (2) TableLayout.jar from https://tablelayout.dev.java.net/ (3) "Java look and feel Graphics Repository" (jlfgr-1_0.jar) from http://java.sun.com/developer/techDocs/hi/repository/ (4) Apache Commons Logging from http://commons.apache.org/logging/ as a dependency of (1) Copies of the required files from (2), (3) and (4) can also be found in the jar subdirectory in the source archive. YajHFC was originally written as a first more complicated (than advanced "Hello world" programs) Java project using the Eclipse IDE (and has gone a long way since that... ;-) ) CHANGES ------- 0.6.3: - Minor bugfixes - Linux fax printer should work again with newer Ubuntu versions - Java Runtime included in Windows setup by default 0.6.2: - Support to show the name/company/comment from a phone book for a number (new columns "Name/Company/Comment (phone book)" that can be added to the tables) - Some minor bug fixes 0.6.1: - Some minor bug fixes - Mac App now works with the Oracle Java packages 0.6.0: - Ability to add user defined comments to faxes NOTE: If the read/unread state is saved in a database table, you will have to alter that table! Please see http://www.yajhfc.de/documentation/knowledge-base/152-database-migration-to-0-6-0 for details. - Linux fax printer deb package now works again with installations having systemd 0.5.7: - Bug fixes for phone book: Can now handle identical items, multi-select no longer "kills" entries - Changed behaviour of "Filter from fax number": Specified characters are now removed completely instead of being replaced by spaces - Some parameters (e.g. number and time to send) of jobs in the sending queue can now be edited 0.5.6: - Added @@subject@@-Tag for text extraction (i.e. you can now also set the fax's subject by using a tag) - Several small bug fixes and enhancements 0.5.5: - Support to use native libtiff in the PDF plugin (offers JBIG support and better compatibility with not 100% clean TIFFs) - Support to read received faxes from AVM Fritz!Box routers (outgoing faxes are still sent over HylaFAX) - Tag name for text extraction now is configurable - New translation: Chinese simplified (zh_CN). - Several minor enhancements and bug fixes 0.5.4: - New batch printer and mailer plugin - Several minor enhancements and bug fixes 0.5.3: - Added "Print report"-feature for sent and received faxes - Windows launcher is now an exe instead of vbs (based on patched launch4j) - Several minor enhancements and bug fixes 0.5.2: - Added PDF plugin - Custom sort order for phone books - Custom display styles for phone books - Named pipe printer support for Win32 - Support to extract recipients from documents - Different behaviour for resend fax and multi select (send window called individually for each selected fax) - Some code cleanup, minor enhancements and bug fixes 0.5.1: - Added console only add on - Changed URLs from yajhfc.berlios.de to www.yajhfc.de - Some bugfixes and minor feature enhancements 0.5.0: - Support for local caching of the fax lists, probably making the start-up of the application feel much quicker - Experimental support for direct reading to the recvq and doneq directory, bypassing the HylaFAX server (and the HylaFAX user authentication). This might lead to a lower server load with large queues since only modified files are read to refresh the fax lists. This still needs some testing, however... (any feedback on this feature is very welcome!) - Options dialog should open a bit faster than before - "Test connection" button in the Options dialog - Support for multiple servers - Support for multiple identities - Lists of faxes can be saved in CSV, HTML or XML format - Support for configurable keyboard accelerators 0.4.4: - Improved MAC OS support (mostly cosmetic changes) - Support to enter custom file converters -

Support for default/override configuration in /etc/yajhfc - Several bug fixes - RPM and DEB packages for YajHFC are available now 0.4.2a: Fix for a bug which caused settings not being saved when no old settings file exists. 0.4.2: - Polish translation added - Support to read recipients from text files - Desired window state can be specified on the command line - "Send only mode" without display of main window (when a document to send and neither --background nor --noclose is specified) -

New command line argument ("--logfile") to log to a file in debug mode - Support for "disconnected mode" as a possible workaround to some HylaFAX bugs - Support to select the modem to use 0.3.5: - Some UI improvements/"polishing" (e.g. progress bar for the fax list and more icons) - Removed some restrictions on visible columns (e.g.: the job ID does no longer have to be visible) - New fax actions now are executed only *after* the faxes are no longer "in progress" 0.3.4a: - Bug fix release: In 0.3.4 an extra character was appended when a fax was submitted by standard input to an already running instance 0.3.4: -

(see below) YajHFC uses GNU gettext for translations, so it is easy to integrate additional ones into the program. For the translator creating a new translation (without translating the documentation) will require a few hours for the initial work and about an hour for every new release. You don't need "advanced" technical knowledge to do it (basically you only need to know how to work with a text editor, by installing specialized software this gets even easier). So, if you would like to have YajHFC translated to your native language, volunteers are always welcome. ;-)
