Does anyone know how to change the way I can view the messages... when I open it I see weird coding like this:%âãÏÓ
1 0 obj
<</Type /XObject
/Subtype /Image
/Width 1728
/Height 2140
/BitsPerComponent 1
/ColorSpace /DeviceGray
/Filter /CCITTFaxDecode
Well I did not want to put the entire thing... but was not sure how to change it to where I can pick which application I would like to view the attachment that is sent if I do not have the format it was sent in. So if anyone knows please advise... thanks in advance!


So not sure how to change the way I can view attachments sent to me... and could not view fax messages that are sent. Before I could see everything fine.. but I must have changed a setting somewhere... help please :confused:

What are the extensions of these files? How are they faxed to you?

They are faxed in through a toll free number... but can not read them see weird coding... and not chose the way I view them either. Do you know how to change that? When someone sends me a email with attachment I can not view it either.

You didn't answer about the file extensions. That's the key here.

Also you say they are faxed in via a toll free number. Are you picking them up using some fax software on your PC? Are you using that software to view them?

They are faxed in through a company called ring central so I just click on it and it usually just opens up... but I some how change the settings and can not view it only see weird coding... hope I answered your question.

Nope you still didn't tell me the file extnesions. But you need to call Ring Central and talk to their tech support.
