Leslie,
I just went to the Brother link you posted for the 8860DN which is a great looking machine that I had been thinking about for quite some time and I have reviewed this before, but again today I re-read the manual about recieving PC Faxes and the manual says that it can recieve in either .tif or .max type files (anyone know what .max files are???).

So I guess my question is exactly how and what are you doing to convert these .tif's into pdf's and how easy or how much of a pain in the butt is whatever you are doing? Is this an easy to perform extra step with the included software or something? Once I can understand how you have dealt with this issue and I feel that it would work for us here, then I guess it is on to getting one for our place.

I just got our scansnap but haven't had the opportunity to install or play with it yet.... I'm so excited to get started. Bye-bye paper mess and lost folders!!!

Thanks much...
Paul
