Is a phone scan good enough for a fax?

Yes. Modern phone cameras (iPhone/Android) have high enough resolution. The mFax.to app also uses "Edge Detection" to flatten the page and make the text crisp, ensuring it looks professional when received.

Can I scan multiple pages?

Absolutely. You can snap photos of Page 1, Page 2, Page 3, etc., and the app will stitch them into a single PDF file before sending.

Do I need good lighting?

It helps significantly. Try to place the document on a dark table (for contrast) near a window. Avoid casting a shadow with your hand for the best results.
