Start with the source file
Use the original PDF instead of screenshots whenever one exists. Scan paper as a document, not a casual photo.
Phone, tablet, or computer
Fax from the device already in front of you.
The transmission is the same. What changes is how your device scans paper, saves a PDF, and exposes the final file to the browser.

The part every device shares
Prepare first. Transmit second.
Open the saved result
A signature or form field is useful only if it appears in the final copy you upload. Reopen it and check every page.
Verify the destination
Autofill, old forms, and search snippets can all supply the wrong number. Use current recipient instructions.
Keep the exact sent copy
Store the final result with the PDF you transmitted and any case, claim, or routing reference.
