Overview
The size of a fax page will vary according to the contents of the fax and also according to the format of the report.
This article provides some sample file sizes (in KB) which may help you plan for bandwidth and hard disk usage.

Note: These are approximate sizes. The tests were done using the amount of text that one would normally find in a fax.

| TIFF Group 3 | 115 | 60 | 15 | 35 | 20 |

Note: Some of the file types shown above like PDF, TIFF, and FAX support multi-page documents, while the others do not support this. For the other file types, each page in the fax will be sent to the user as a separate file (but in the same email).
