Use Fax.Plus to fax a Google Docs document with the add-on, or download it as a PDF and send the saved file. You do not need a fax machine or phone line.
Use the add-on for an open Google Doc, or export a PDF for the web app, phone or email. Fax.Plus handles the transmission when you send fax online; Google Docs does not include a fax service.
Integrating Fax.Plus with your Google Workspace is a game-changer. To initiate this Google Fax integration and send faxes through Google, you will first need to install the Fax.Plus extension for Google Workspace, and register to Fax.Plus using your Google account. Here’s how to fax a Google doc within minutes:
Download your Google Doc as a PDF, then upload the saved file in Fax.Plus. This works in a browser on your PC or Mac without installing the Docs add-on.
On your phone, save or export your Google Doc as a PDF first. Attach that saved file in the Fax.Plus app rather than trying to fax a Google Docs sharing link.
Yes. Export your Google Doc as a PDF and attach it to an email. Email to Fax requires a paid Fax.Plus plan, the feature enabled and an authorized sender address.
Fax your Google document and keep the transmission record

Yes. Save or export your Google Doc as a PDF, then attach it in the Fax.Plus mobile app. Enter the recipient’s fax number, send the fax, and check its final status.
No. A sharing link or .gdoc shortcut is not a supported fax attachment. Use the Fax.Plus add-on or attach an exported PDF so the recipient receives the document’s pages.
Check Faxes > Sent in Fax.Plus. A Success status confirms transmission to the receiving fax equipment. You can also download a Fax Confirmation Report. It does not confirm that a person read the document.
Find a guide for another Google app, prepare the files you need to send, or get help with fax delivery.
