Easy FAX (paid edition) | TSURUMI Co., Ltd.

What you need (a USB phone modem is required for faxing)

Sending and receiving faxes needs a "USB phone modem" and an analog phone line

One USB phone modem (fax-capable, connected by USB). Choose one that works as a fax modem in Windows Fax and Scan.
An analog phone line (the socket you plug a phone or fax into) and a phone cord to the modem.
A Windows 10 / 11 PC, with the modem set up in Windows Fax and Scan.
The modem receives only while the PC is running. To receive while the PC is off, a multifunction printer can receive and forward faxes to the PC (item 5 in the table).
Even with several PCs, one USB phone modem on one PC is enough. With LAN or server sharing, sending from a PC without a modem is handled by the PC with the modem.

Comparing the four editions (free and three paid)

○ = included, ✕ = not in this edition, brown text = partly included or coming soon. Items marked "Modem" need a USB phone modem. The free Easy FAX can also send through a multifunction printer's fax driver (WFO). Scroll sideways if the table is wide.

What Easy FAX (paid) does (in detail)

Numbers match the comparison table above.

No	Feature	Details
Fax
2	Sending faxes Needs modem	Enter the fax number and press Run. Write on the page on the right; drag an image in or paste it with Ctrl+V to attach it. Register frequent recipients in speed dial and call up their numbers with one button. Typing in the number box filters by numbers you have sent to and by saved company names.
3	Printing, or printing only	Check both Send and Print to send and also print on your usual printer. Check only Print to print without sending (no number needed). Printed items stay in the list, so you can reopen one later, add a number and send it.
4	Receiving faxes (USB phone modem) Needs modem	Receives faxes through the USB phone modem connected to the PC. It stays resident (it keeps running in the tray after you close the window) and shows a "Fax received" notice at the bottom right. You can turn the ring sound and the notice on or off, and save the sender's number to speed dial on the spot. Faxes are received while the PC is running.
5	Receiving with a multifunction printer (24 hours)	If your multifunction printer forwards received faxes to a shared folder on the PC, the app watches that folder and lists them under Received. The printer receives even while the PC is off, so anything that arrived meanwhile appears when the app next starts. The settings window guides you through finding the printer and creating the shared folder.
6	Save format for received faxes	Choose to save received faxes as an image, or as Word, Excel or PowerPoint files with the recognized text. In PowerPoint each page becomes one slide that looks like the fax, with text you can select, copy and search. "To PowerPoint" also works later.
7	History list and search	Sent faxes, received faxes and printed items are listed by date on the left. Type in the search box to find them by number, name, date, title or text.
Sharing faxes in your company
8	LAN sharing	Several PCs on the same LAN share one set of sent/received records and one phone book. One USB phone modem is enough: sending from a PC without a modem automatically asks the PC with the modem to send. Received faxes appear on every PC with a notice. Share via SwiftSyncProX (easiest) or via a shared folder.
9	Server sharing	Keep faxes on your company web server so any PC, in the office or away, can see them. PCs without fax hardware can leave a send request on the server and the office fax sends it. On the first PC, "Auto setup" installs a small program and a key; other PCs just paste the join code. Needs an https website, PHP on the server, and your FTP user name and password.
Creating documents
10	Text formatting and paragraphs	Font, size, bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, color, superscript/subscript, clear formatting; bullets, left/center/right alignment, indent/outdent; undo (Ctrl+Z) and redo (Ctrl+Y). Line spacing is "normal" (as before) or set by the number of lines per A4 portrait page, 20 to 100 (up to 62 lines with 12 pt text; sending and printing use the same count). Toolbar buttons can be added or removed freely (about 30 extra tools such as date, symbols, find and highlight).
11	Pen (handwriting)	Press the pen button to draw on the page with the mouse. Change color, thickness (1-10) and the number of pens in the settings and pick one from ▼. Drawings are sent and printed with the text and images.
12	Snipping and reading tables	Snip part of the screen and it is attached automatically. With "Read a table for Excel", a snipped table pastes into Excel cell by cell (numbers read well; check Japanese text).
13	Auto layout	Formats a business letter: first line as title (large, bold, centered), date to the right, addressee, "記" centered, "以上" to the right, aligned bullets, and TEL/FAX/address/company at the end as the sender on the right. Undo from ▼.
14	Saving and categories	Creates folders for received faxes, printed items, documents, POP, web and slides, split by industry and category (quote, invoice, order, delivery, receipt, notice, etc., chosen from the wording). Save as web (.html), PDF, PowerPoint, Word-readable (.rtf), PNG or text, as many as you like.
15	Print preview, rotate, zoom	See exactly how pages will print and send (text, images, drawing, page count) and print from there. Switch portrait/landscape (attached images rotate too), zoom, and actual-size view.
16	Save as web, Excel to web	Turn the document into one .html file with images inside (email it or put it on a website). Turn an Excel file (.xlsx) into a web page whose formulas keep working in the browser (SUM, IF, VLOOKUP, etc., with formats, merged cells and sheets).
17	Slideshow and PowerPoint	Show the document full screen page by page as it will print (→/Space next, ← back, Esc to end). Also save as PowerPoint (one page per slide) or web.
PC care
27	Equipment (PC Doctor)	"Diagnose" checks and fixes five items: low-memory prevention, unused software, desktop cleanup, USB AutoPlay and browser ad blocking. Disk cleanup, temp-file cleanup, startup apps, DNS cache clearing and more are one button away.

Not in this edition: 18 POP maker, 19 Co-editing, 20 Editing your website, 21 AI assistant, 22 Plugins, 23 GitHub (CreatorProX includes them all)

Automatic renewal	Choose "Automatic renewal" when you apply and one year is paid automatically every year on the end date (no yearly steps). The first payment is on the current end date (or the end of the trial). You can apply before the renewal time. Stop it at any time in the right-click menu of the tray icon > License (period of use / payment) > "Stop automatic renewal" (the app keeps working until the current end date). Without automatic renewal, we notify you in the app and by email one month before the end date.
License	One license per PC, bound to your PC's ID.
Requirements	Windows 10 / 11. Sending and receiving faxes needs a fax-capable USB phone modem and an analog phone line (set up in Windows Fax and Scan). With several PCs, one modem on one PC is enough (in editions with LAN/server sharing). Receiving with a multifunction printer needs its fax receiving and forwarding to the PC set up.

How to pay

Open "License" from the right-click menu of the tray icon and press "OK (go to payment)". This page opens with the PC ID filled in.
Enter your email address, choose "Automatic renewal" or "Pay for this year only", and go to payment.
When the payment is confirmed the period of use is extended by one year, and we email you.
The app picks up the new end date automatically (or press "Check payment" in the license window).
