Thanks for making it simple.

But why don't I have to render my tifs to fax them?

All files and programs on your computer are simply a series of 1s and 0s.
To send a fax, these 1s and 0s need to be rendered into a format that will
display the picture as something other than random numbers and letters that
represent the picture, hence the requirement to "render" these 1s and 0s
into a format that will display the picture when faxed.
