I forgot about receiving a fax and  converting it  to a file.
In case of efax-gtk:
File-> Received faxes -> select and open with evince (or other 
postscript viewer, as you may set it in File -> Settings -> View tab) 
--> save as .ps file or print it to the pdf.
To print/convert to pdf without opening a fax:
File -> Setting -> Print tab -> Print program -> lpr -P yorpdfprinter
Note: this is in Hardy, where I use fax and above string is
"lpr -P PDF".
With this setting you can also use "print_fax" script to automatically 
convert received faxes to pdf files. (Receive tab in Settings dialogue).
See efax-gtk documentation for more info.

Hope it helps.
Regards
