  4. Configure settings of the fax machine/server as required (For details about the settings, refer to Export to - Fax).
  5. Click OK to accept the changes.

Now, you can export your report results to fax as follows:

  1. Open the report that contains the report tab you want to export.
  2. On the report tab bar, click the tab that represents the report tab.
  3. Click File > Export To > Fax on the menu bar.
  4. In the Export to Fax dialog, specify the settings as required. See the dialog.
  5. When done, click OK to generate the file.
