Is it possible to create a fax template in Outlook without using a fax service?

Clarify your question. You can create merge documents in Outlook if that's
what you are asking.

Our office has been using ACT! which has templates for faxes, letter,
envelopes etc.. We have switched to Outlook and everyone is complaining they
can't use their personalized company fax cover sheets or letterhead anymore
without a lot of cutting & pasting. How do I merge the cover sheets and
letter head over to Outlook so it's easier for everyone to use? It's a
construction company so some of the guys need it to be easy for them to use -
the computer is not necessarily their friend!

Outlook provides no easy way to to this. The best you can do natively is set
up a merge document to merge with Word or use Word's Insert Address Function
in a Word document.
I should think you could find some third party apps to do this more easily.

Did you figure out how to do this? I have been attempting to figure out the
same "Problem". I just want to click a button in word to insert my outlook
information in a fax cover page, type my message, print it, then fax it from
my fax machine.
