You send a signed PDF, expect the task to be finished, and get a reply asking for a fax number. That usually happens at the worst time. The office copier is gone, the phone line was removed years ago, and a trip to a shipping store makes no sense for a three-page document. That gap […]

Need to fax from your iPad? Usually that moment hits when you've already done the hard part. You reviewed the document, marked it up, signed it with Apple Pencil, and now the other side says they only accept faxes.

I get the instinct. I've tested dedicated fax apps for routine office work, last-minute […]
