    We designed that the IFAX header is similer as G3 header.
    The IFAX header consists of date, time,mail address of transmitter and page
    number.
    One of reason that fax header is send as image form is character font
    converting to image.
    The receiver could not print the information form transmitter
    when Japanese characters are send from the transmitter in the information.
    I know that the user may not understand the Japanese characters in the
    image header.

    Regards,

    Toru Maeda
