Pdf-files in mail are damaged

pdf-files received as an attachment on my Mc Mini can not be opened (the file is damaged). Same message on my Ipad opens without problem
Anybody has a solution?

Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plugins
Trash the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files.
Empty the trash.
You shouldn't see the "damaged file" error anymore.
The damaged files are a loss. You might as well trash them.

PDF files in Mail

For a while now I have been having trouble with pdf files in Mail. Sometimes I cannot even open them as they appear as a little black dot. The trouble came to a head recently when one of the pdf files I work with for some reason opened up without one of the pages it should have had. This file opens fine on the other iMac we have that is running Tiger and when that iMac saves the file then I can open it just fine as well. But when I save it the page is missing on both mine and the other. Please help... my job is at stake! And I am not exaggerating

What kind of computer and email program is sending it to you? If these are multi-page PDFs, they could show up in the body of the message, rather than as a separate attachment. If they do, you should be able to simply drag the file from the body onto your Desktop, and then you can open it with Preview or Acrobat Reader.
Are you able to do this, and what happens when you drag the PDF into an open Safari window?

Can't view PDF files in Mail

After the 10.5 upgrade I can no longer view PDFs in Mail. Not sure if this is also due to the install of Adobe CS3, however now PDFs just show as a "mime-attachment" which do not display in any other app. Other 10.5.1 users can view these email attachments just fine.
Is there a way to re-enable PDF files in Mail.app, so that mails with PDF files are displaying within mail.app correctly?

Yes, I can view emails it is the PDF files I can't download or view. In OS 4 I could touch the attachment and it would open up, now when I touch the attachment it just tries to download. This is for all PDF files in gmail.

Attaching multipage .pdf file in Mail

How do I attach a multipage .pdf file in Mail? I am running OSX 10.8.2 on a MacBook Pro. When I try to attach only the frst page attaches.

Are you sure?
When you add the multi-page attachment to your email only the first page shows. If you click on that first page to select it and then right click and choose Quick Look Attachemnt you should be able to see that all pages are there.

Single page PDF file in mail always appears in message body, instead of as an attachment, contrary to a multiple page PDF. Why?

When sending a single page PDF file in mail, it always appears as an open file in the message body. Multiple page PDF files appear as attachments. Why the difference and how to change the behavior of single page PDF files so that they appear as attachments instead of open files?

Hello billsbs,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that when you add a PDF to mail you see its entire contents, but when you add two or more pages Mail shows them as a document icon. To change this behavior for that specific email, please follow the instructions in the attached article.

Have a great day,

Cannot forward one page PDF files from mail app

My earlier topic had incorrect problem report so I've created a new topic.
The problem is i cannot forward one page PDF file from mail apps. I use imap set up for my work email.
Multi page PDFs, photos, docs, numbers, all forward OK for both windows and Mac formats.

Update: I hade had a reply from the Good Reader app developer saying this is a known issue even for them. However, they don't know if Apple will fix this or not.
Basically mail app treats all one page PDF as if it's an image and will forward it the same as it would an image. Any non-apple based mail programs will have issues viewing this file..

Why my device not read pdf-files in mail messages?

Do you have Adobe Reader installed?
What exactly means "not read"?

Mountain Lion not opening pdf files in Mail

Since installing ML I cannot open pdf files in Mail. I have updated Adobe Reader to the latest version, but no joy. I desperately need to open these files. Should I just give up and forward them to my wheezy old Sony running Windows XP?

Also having this issue and it's a bit of a headache especially when removing Acrobat reader is not an option, i prefer to actually have my PDF files open from Mail in Acrobat Professional (not reader). Tried re-installing, no dice.

All of a sudden Reader says all pdf's rec'd by e-mail are damaged or corrupt. Help available?

I'm using the latest version of Office 365's Outlook on Windows 8.1. I receive many e-mails from different sources containing PDF files. All of a sudden I receive an error message on every PDF. Generally its "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and can't be repaired." I even forwarded a PDF that I know others have been able to open to my wife's e-mail address and it gave her the same error message. So not only are PDF's I receive not able to be opened but my Reader or something else on my computer seems to be damaging or corrupting them! I thought I had a malware problem so I re-set my Dell laptop back to reinstallation of Windows and re-installed Adobe Reader XI. I have also right-clicked on a PDF file and set Adobe Reader XI as the default program.

Hi bellingenbob,
Please let me know what version of Adobe Reader you are using.
You might need to choose 'Check for Updates' option under the Help menu to use the latest version of Reader i.e. 11.0.10
Also, tell me whether you are viewing the PDFs through 'Preview' or first download the files and then open with Reader.
Try disabling protected mode from Edit> Preferences> Security (Enhanced) and check.
Hope to hear from you.
Regards,
Anubha

I have a problem because one pdf attach is 663 KB and when I read it in mail it can not open the file and give me this error :

I send the same mail with another PDF file (64,2 KB) and all it's work correct.
This files are in my application server, and this is the code that I use to read and send :

           gs_table LIKE LINE OF gt_table.
open dataset wa for input in binary mode.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
do.
    read dataset wa into gs_table LENGTH alen.
    ctr = ctr + alen.
    if sy-subrc ne 0.
      exit.
    endif.
    append gs_table to gt_table.
enddo.
endif.
close dataset wa.

I find this link but the problem are not resolve : Compress Smartform PDF file before sending mail
Can anyone help me to understand where is the problem ?
thanks a lot
Barbara

Hi,
I find the way to resolve this topic, thanking a collegue.
The problem is the way that I use to read the file.
If I read the file in the following way, the problem concerning the size are bypassing.
DATA : gs_table LIKE LINE OF gt_table.
DATA: l_xstring TYPE xstring.
DATA : alen TYPE i.
OPEN DATASET p_p_file FOR INPUT IN BINARY MODE.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
   DO.
    READ DATASET p_p_file INTO l_xstring.
     p_bin_filesize = p_bin_filesize + alen.
     IF sy-subrc NE 0.
       EXIT.
     ENDIF.
     APPEND gs_table TO gt_table.
   ENDDO.
ENDIF.
CLOSE DATASET p_p_file.
CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY'
      EXPORTING
        buffer                = l_xstring
    APPEND_TO_TABLE       = ' '
     IMPORTING
       output_length         = p_bin_filesize
      TABLES
        binary_tab            = gt_table .
thanks a lot

PDF File is Corrupted or Damaged when the Attachment is Opened

Hello,
        I have three Similar forms which are triggered from Sales Order, Delivery & Shipment respectively. Now, the requirement is to send the Form Output as PDF Attachment in a mail. But the Problem I am facing is that the Shipment Output goes as PDF attachment and when opened, it is displayed correctly. However, when the Sales Order & Delivery PDFs are sent as attachments, then the Adobe Reader says
"The File is Corrupted or damaged hence cannot be opened". This is the Message I get when processed from the Delivery. For the Sales Order, the Mail Output triggers with an error in SOST.
     We have the Mail Ports open during Testing and I am using the latest version of Adobe Reader. Can someone give me any resolution to handle the Damaged PDF File?
Thanks and Regards,
Venkat Phani Prasad Konduri

Hi Konduri,

Error in opening pdf file from mail attachment sent thru MII

Hi,
I am using MII 12.1.4 build(36).
I have created a pdf file from BLS using PDF actions block and saving the file in web location as mentioned below:
WEB://<ProjectFolder>/<subfolder>/Report.pdf
I'm using the same file as attachment in my m a i l action block with attachment content type "application/pdf" and AttachmentContent "ImageSaver.EncodedImage" or "PDFDoc.Output".
When i check the mail,i can see the attachment with some size of 8kb,but when I open the file i will get below error:
"Adobe Reader could not open Report.pdf because it is either not supported file type or because the file has been damaged(for example,it was sent as an m a i l attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)"
If I try to open the same file by exporting fit to my desktop,it opened properly.
Anything I'm missing here?
Thanks in Advane,
Suresh

Hi,
According to below mentioned thread,this problem is fixed in 12.1.5 and above.
Re: Attachment Content When sending PDF attachment in Send Mail Step
Then I deployed the new patch ie SP07.
Here there is one problem,ie in Menu page I can see the 12.1.7(Build40),when I open the workbech,it shows the previous patch 12.1.4(Build 36).Why is it so?
All of my transactions running fine except the one which I have mentioned in my previous post.
When I run the transaction mentioned in my previous post,it threw an excption for PDF Table Action block and the error mentioned below:
[ERROR] Error found trying to execute action 'PDF_Table_0' Exception: [null]
[ERROR] [PDF_Table_0] Action: Runtime threw an exception. Exception: [java.lang.StackOverflowError]
When I can check the m a i l, I'm able to open the attached PDF file without error but without data.Is it because of the above mentioned error?
Plz help me.
-Suresh
