How to send your documents

01

Prepare Your Document for Online Faxing

Make sure your document is saved as a clear, readable PDF. If you're taking a photo with your phone, use your device's built-in scanner mode for the sharpest results.

Tip: Combine multiple pages into one PDF to ensure the fax transmits smoothly.
02

Enter the Recipient's Fax Number

Most fax numbers in the U.S. follow a standard 10-digit format (e.g., 555-123-4567). TidyFax automatically formats and prepares the number for transmission.

Double-check the number to avoid sending your fax to the wrong destination.
