PDF's not attaching in email

Hi,
I have a user who states that he previously was able to open an attachment from an email, modify it, and then hit the email as attachment button to send it via email.  Now when he does this the pdf embeds in the email instead of attaching, and he can't open it. 
We've tried opening a blank email and then attaching the pdf.  That gives us the same result.
He can reply to someone and attach it.
I'm betting if we saved the pdf to his computer that would allow us to attach it normally, but he has to do this for maybe 100 different files so it would become time consuming.  Other members of the staff are able to do this without saving it locally anyway.  I just haven't seen what's different about his.
He's running Acrobat 9.5.5 on Windows 7 with Office 2010 installed. 

I think you need to make sure your email format is set to either HTML or Plain text in Outlook.

  • Latest Adobe Reader, PDF will not attach to email message

    I downloaded the latest Reader Jan 2014, I can use PDF's fill in forms etc as normal. However when I go to attach the PDF to my email (Tried Hotmail/Outlook, Yahoo mail, Mail.com) once the file has been selected to attach a messagi in the window where the PDF normally appears reads; PLEASE WAIT, if this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF reader may not be able to display this type of document.
    The reader operates as normal, I have removed and reinstalled reader but it will not attach the PDF no matter how long you wait. Please HELP
    OS windows 7

    I do not understand as I have never had a problem sending PDF's by email prior to installing version XI, if I remove it and reinstall version X do you think it will cure the problem?
    thank you

    for the moment you can Forcequit, as Eustace said.
    Really quit a program you do by clicking the menu bar of the program where its name is, on the bottom you see "Quit (appname)"; when it is in the Dock, rightclick it in the Dock and choose "Quit".
    Now about yout attachment: it does not matter what you did to it and where you moved it, as long as Preview is still open it doesn't let it go.

  • Iphoto will not attach to email!!

    I have attempted three different ways to attact from Iphoto to email. First, from a New email message selecting "Photo Browser", Second from opening up Iphoto and selecting the photos and selecting email, third from opening Iphoto-selecting the Copy and Paste method of pasting into a New email message. It is not attaching nor pasting any Iphotos. This is odd as it has worked before for the past 4 years. AND IT WORKS with new photos that were just imported, not previous photos that have been in Iphoto for years. Any ideas? Thanks for your participation.    IMAC OS X version 10.6.8

    That means that the problem is limited to your account.  It could be a bad preference file.  Here's one way to determine if that's the case:
    Trouble Shooting Preferences
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    If you're running Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    1 - close all applications.
    2 - open your Home/Library folder and Option-drag (copy) the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
    3 - select the contents of your Home/Library/Preferences folder and drag them into the Trash bin in the Dock.  You will be asked to provide your Admin password.
    4 - reboot. Be sure to know your account's username and password as you will be asked to log in with it.
    5 - run the application again and determine if the problem(s) is fixed.
    6 - If the problem is fixed:
    A - open the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    B - Open the Preferences  folder on the Desktop, select all of the contents and drag them into the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    C - When the Copy window pops up check the "Apply to All" check box and then click on the Don't Replace or Skip button.
    D - reboot.
    7 - If the problem is NOT fixed, drag the contents of the Preference folder on the Desktop into the Home/Library/Preference folder and replace the entire contents that were created by clicking on Replace.
    8 - reboot and you're back as square one.
    Note:  keep the Preference folder on the desktop until you're sure all registration info for your apps are working.  If not you can copy the required files from the desktop pref folder to the working one.

  • Sending pdf as an attachment in email with all changes done on the pdf

    Hello Everyone,
    I have developed a webdynpro java application which sends a interactive form as an attachment in an email. Everything works fine except that there are some editable fields on the form and the changes dont go in the attachment. The Send Email button is on the webdynpro View. I tried many different things but nothing worked. Somehow the changes done on the form dont get saved in the pdfSource when a button on the webdynpro view is clicked. Any help would be very much appreciated.

  • Sales Order and Pick List reports will not attach to Email message

    My client wants to email both the Sales Order and Pick List that is created from the Sales Order in the same email message.  It appears that SAP B1 will not do this.  Is this a bug or just the way B1 works.  My client is running version 8.8 PL 19.   Thank you for your help.
    Bill Turek

    Hi Bill,
    Pick List is associated with delivery, not sales order. If you need Pick List be emailed, you have to email delivery.

  • I receive PDFs attached to emails. When I open them and try to save them, it takes me to a temporary location on the C drive, and does not remember where I last saved a PDF.

    This happens on every PDF I open from an email. The PDF opens fine, but when I go to save it I end up in a temporary location, which bears no resemblance to the location I was last in when I had to navigate to it. I am saving documents on a network location.
    I am running Windows 7 SP1, and am using Adobe Reader 11.0.5
    Any help would be greatly appreciated,
    Thanks,
    Tania

    This is the appropriate behavior.. Most email programs (browsers too) store attachments (or files) in a cache area. You then need to do a save as to more them to a different location. The plug-in is finding the pdf in the location determined by the email program, so that is the last place the plug-in used. It doesn’t have a different location to use.
