EFX - eFax Document

What is a EFX file

eFax is a service that allows you to send and receive fax messages using your e-mail program. The fax messages are transferred as document attachments. These documents have the EFX extension. Receiving faxes via e-mail is available in the free version of eFax. For sending, a paid version is necessary.

EFX document files can contain e-mail attachments as well as the body text of the e-mail. EFX files can be converted into PDF document or TIF image files. Thus the user can open them in another software program as well. Many different files can, on the other hand, be converted into EFX files to send them using the eFax service.

Here's a small, but not exhaustive list of programs that can open EFX documents:

  • j2 Global Communications eFax (Windows, Mac & Linux)
