Question

You need to fax a portion of a map from a large hard-cover atlas to a client from an internal fax-modem. To fax the map, the best way to convert it to a digital file is to use a/an        A. page-feed scanner.   B. flat-bed scanner.   C. hand-held scanner.   D. internal connector board.  

Answer 1

The fax modem is used to send and receive fax messages by only having phone line (fax machine is not required). The scanned documents should be saved as digital file (image or PDF format) in order to be sent. So, in order to send a portion of a map you should first convert the map into digital file and than simply send it through the fax modem. The best way to convert it to a digital file is to use an optical character recognition (OCR).
