I have previously done this by creating either a text or PDF document with
PHP and then passing it off to HylaFAX.
The only problems I was having was that I would create a legal size PDF.
When I sent it through HylaFAX, the destination fax machine would not
scale the PDF to various size paper, only cut off portions. I suspect
however that the problem was related to a HylaFAX configuration, and not
PHP.
If you wish to use graphics in your fax, look at:

Otherwise, just create a plain text fax page from the form data and send
it to HylaFAX.

NOTE: This is a UNIX-based solution.
