📄 Why Faxing a PDF Works Best

PDFs are the cleanest, most reliable file type to fax from a phone because:

  • They preserve formatting
  • They don’t compress or blur
  • They look clean on the recipient’s end
  • Most apps and scanners export to PDF

If you have a paper form, just scan or photograph it and save it as a PDF before faxing.

📌 Mobile PDF Faxing Tips

For the best results:

  • Use cloud storage (Google Drive, Dropbox, iCloud) if the file’s not saved locally
  • Preview before sending to confirm it looks correct
