Upgrading from earlier GFI FAXmaker versions

Important note: The default cover page format has changed from RTF to HTML. Therefore, after performing the upgrade, you have to re-design your RTF cover pages in HTML format. You will also have to reconfigure the cover page settings.

If you have an earlier version of GFI FAXmaker installed, and you want to retain your fax device and line settings, please perform the upgrade as follows:

1. Un-install your current GFI FAXmaker installation and make sure you DO NOT delete the directory where it was installed.

2. Run the GFI FAXmaker installation build and follow the instructions.

3. When set-up asks you for the installation directory, choose to install in the same directory where your old GFI FAXmaker installation was.

This procedure will make sure that you keep your fax server settings. I.e.: The lines and devices configuration, the dialing configuration etc... User configuration such as routing information and call blocking are not retained. After the new installation has been successfully installed, you can continue to configure GFI FAXmaker.

Alternatively, you can install GFI FAXmaker to a new directory and configure GFI FAXmaker again. In this case however, fax device and line settings will not be retained
