I have nine pages of a document scanned into nine individual jpg's. I
would like to send these nine pages as a single fax. How do I do that?
I'm using OS 10.5.8.
Thanks.

I probably ought to add you'll need to make the TextEdit document RTF

format (Format->Make Rich Text) if you've previously set it to plain
text by default, and you can just drag and drop the image files right
into the document.

Some multi-function printers also still include the ability to fax scanned

I just print from Word, excel, pdf viewer, etc. to my USB fax. Done.

I haven't sent a fax to anyone in almost 2 years now ... so the USB fax
widget is for sale - and no offers are coming...
And I don't have a landline anymore so its moot in any case.

Is it Mountain Lion compatible? I may be interested in buying it

if so. Apple's own short lived USB fax modem hasn't worked since 10.7.

Um, do you have a faxmodem on your machine? They haven't been common

in a few years.
I regularly fax from my machines using an online fax service. There's
a specialized app (though I think they have a web-based option as well)
and it lets me fill in the destination number and add all the files I
like and an optional cover page.
In my case, I'd start up the app, drag and drop those nine files into
the window, put in a number and hit the send button.
But I have no reason to think you're using such an app. How did you
intend do to this?
If you really just mean how can you combine the images into a single
document, there are a variety of options from pasting them all into a
textedit or word processing document to using Preview (though I'm not
sure if Preview from 10.5 will do it).
