Vista: Add Custom Fax Cover Pages
Posted by Mitch on Dec 17, 2007 under Windows Vista Tips | 1 CommentAre you tired of the standard cover sheets in Windows Vista Fax? Add your own. You can either create your own, or start with one of the cover sheets included for Windows Vista Fax. To find these sheets:
1. Hold down the Windows key and press R.
2. Type %SystemDrive%\ProgramData\Windows NT\MSFax\Common Coverpages
This will show all of the included cover sheets. You can edit these in any program that will edit bitmaps. Photoshop, MSPaint, Paint.NET or the include Cover Page Editor will all do this for you.
When you’re finished creating or editing your coversheet, simply save your bitmap file under a new filename in the Common Coverpages folder. Then whenever you print to the Windows Vista Fax driver you will have the option of selecting your customer cover sheet.

Windows+R? I’ll tell my friend with that procedure. That would be cool!
It’s really nice to know that fax technology is not totally phased out. That’s really cool!
