Can you fax me that floppy disk?

can I fax that in JAB Code? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JAB_Code)

[eesmith → Stratoscope]

Sure. Just send a formal request by TELEX to 252-2268 STNEWS J. and we'll get that started.

[pezezin → Stratoscope]

Sure, otherwise how are you going to stamp the hanko?
