This is a bug already discovered in Ubuntu (see URL). Ghostscript changed processing defaults so ps2fax and pdf2fax (etc) cannot generate a valid TIFF. The result is that the fax recipient only gets an empty page. The fix described there (MaxStripSize=0) resolves the issue.

Involved versions:
net-misc/hylafax-6.0.3
app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.71-r1

I propose to use the MaxStripSize=0 approach in HylaFax to make it more robust to ghostscript upstream changes.

Reproducible: Always
