More Info About Fax Cover Sheets
Each time you send a fax, you’ll be given the option to include a free fax cover sheet. It costs nothing from your account (no fax credits are deducted for using the built-in Fax.Live cover sheet). The built-in free form includes the following fields: To, From, Recipient Phone, Sender Phone, Pages (autofilled), Date (autofilled), Subject, and Message. All fields are optional, except the date, which our system automatically completes.
What is a fax cover page?
Great question, and we probably shouldn’t have assumed everyone knows what a cover page is! A cover page — or cover sheet — contains important information about a fax transmission, including sender and recipient information. It answers the questions: who is this fax for, who is sending the fax, how many pages are in the fax, and when was it set? There’s also a space for a personalized message.

Why include a cover sheet/page?
The cover sheet ensures your message gets to the right person or department. I can also include any pertinent information that you want to include, such as a request for call back. Many businesses receive dozens (or more!) of fax messages every day. A cover page includes important information about your faxed message. Two of the most important pieces of information include the recipient (department or person) and the number of pages.

May I use my own fax cover page?
Yes, of course! If you prefer to use your own cover sheet, simply upload it with your fax document (it must be in a PDF format). Select Send New Fax, upload your document(s), and leave the Optional Free Cover Sheet toggled to the off position.
