I read in the May, 1991 MacUser that Group 3 faxes have a Standard
resolution of 203x98 dpi, and a Fine resolution of 203x196 dpi.  The
sample shown (p. 107) makes Fine look *much better* than Standard.  Do
most standalone fax machines support the Fine resolution?  I've
received a fair number of faxes, and I can't recall any that looked
anywhere near as good as MacUser's example.  Is this just because no
one is using Fine mode, or is it because it hasn't been available on
many fax machines?
