What is the best Fax software for Ubuntu? Is there a comparison for the available options? I am interested in a program with a friendly GUI, easy to use, for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Some institutions require sending documents via Fax for security reasons. Thank you.

I haven't found anything to replace Faxworks for OS/2 ....

They did a linux port but that has since faded.

There are a number of fax programs available that might be OK for an occasional page, see the Software Center. Unless things have improved lately, they might still suffer the linux disease, though (a whole lot of power complicated by configuration complexity).

What I am using now is an HP all-in-one and the HPLIP toolbox and GUI. Xsane and SimpleScan can run the scanner and save to PDF. I can then run the HP utility to send the PDF via fax.
