Inline attachments such as PDF

I receive numerous pdf attachments from a friend. They show up inline as graphics. I would prefer that they show up just as attachments. I cannot find a setting for this. Is there any way to change this?
Daniel

OK, I can answer my own question. There is a plugin for $6 that does the trick exactly. It is called "Mail Attachment Iconsizer", and can be found here:
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/25945
I have downloaded it, and it works just great. It turns out that single page pdf's are always viewed inline, but multipage documents show up as icons. This way they are all icons, but can be viewed many ways with a right click.

  • I have ipad2, I need a good app to help me open any attachments such as PDF , word or others, please help

    How can I get a good app to open any email with different attachments such as PDF , word and others, something to open
    Easily just like my PC . Is it possible?

    Those document types should open in the Mail app. If you want to transfer them from Mail into another app then there is Documents To Go (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/documents-to-go-office-suite/id317117961?mt=8#) which, from its description :
    • EDIT, CREATE & VIEW Word & Excel files (including Office 2007/2008/2010)
    • View  PowerPoint ,PDF, iWork & other files
    • iPad/iPhone 4/iOS 4: Send & receive attachments using the device's built-in Mail app
    • Includes desktop app (Win & Mac) with 2-way file sync (WIFI required to sync)
    I havn't got the app myself, but I've seen it recommended by others

  • Attachments (such as pdf) in a mail merge Outlook 2010

    Along with the problem of having the mail merges sent from the wrong email account, I also need to attach a PDF of a brochure for the recipient's printing.  I don't see a way to do this.  Can someone help?  I did a search and it mentions a
    Visual Basic way to do this but I don't know the first thing about usng Visual Basic.  I am willing to learn if that is the only way these issues can be overcome.
    Thanks.

    OK, well it looks like I have answered this question myself.  It may not be the easiest or the most elegant solution, but my Googling came up with this
    http://omma.sourceforge.net/.  It actually works rather nicely, but you have to set Outlook to work Offline first and then do the full mail merge.  Once the completed and merged emails are in the Outlook
    Outbox, you run the script and it pulls the selected attachment and adds it to the emails one at a time.  It takes several minutes to complete, but it works.
    If anyone else has a more efficient solution, please feel free to chime in.  I DO still need help with the selection of the outgoing email account, so if you have any solution for that, please let me know.
    Thanks.

  • Outlook 2013: can't open inline attachments

    Hi, a colleague of mine has in Inbox an email with inline attachments that I can see in the body of the message:
    He said he could open these attachments with Outlook 2007. A few days ago we upgraded to Outlook 2013 and now he can't open them. A security popup shows, because outlook identifies it as an external content unsafe, but if he proceeds Word tries to open and
    then crashes. If he tries to open with another application (such as notepad) it says "I cannot find the file C:\temp\cid:a0d0" etc etc
    I tried to extract the attachment with a third party software but on this email it doesn't discover any attachment.
    I cannot guarantee at 100% that these files could be opened with Outlook 2007, but I believe to my colleague. So, is there a reason why it is no more possible to open these attachments?

    Hi Maurice 7785,
    Deal and customize attachment security behavior to access such kind of blocked file format. Usually, Outlook does not allow users to open such unsafe type of attachments. It means they are blocked them by default, so you need to unblock such items using REG
    values.
    Take more help from the similar thread:

  • Sending Inline Attachments Truncates Message on Exchange Server

    Have two profiles in Mail:
    1. Home - Mobile Me IMAP
    2. Work - NASA Exchange 2007
    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Create a message as my Work profile.
    2. Intersperse attachments (PDF files) in message (not all at end). Case in question has 2 "iconized" attachments (long 4+ page PDFs) and two fully visible attachments (1 page PDFs).
    3. When I send mail as Profile 2, anyone else on the Exchange Server receiving my attachments (including my own account, viewed from Outlook on a remote Windows machine) sees all the text up to the first inline attachment, and then nothing. There are four attachments available to save, but no additional text from the rest of the e-mail.

    Outlook has a tough time rendering an email correctly. If you want it to have all attachments inline (and the server doesn't strip out or prevent use of HTML messages), you can trick it to work. When you start a new message, change the font to something other than your default font. That will trigger Outlook into rendering it correctly.
    Some people create a signature in the Font that they want to compose in, and then start the message in the first line of the signature. That will set the font tag for Outlook to understand.
    If you want the recipients to actually be able to use the image attachments you send, make sure you set the message to Plain Text and put the attachments at the end. Otherwise, Outlook renders the images inline and it is nearly impossible to save them separate from the message.

  • How to retrieve attachments from a PDF?

    Hi All,
    how do i retrive attachments in a pdf using workbench process?
    I have used a DDX file which is :
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <DDX xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/DDX/1.0/">
    <FileAttachments result="attachmentInfo.xml" nameKeys="*" extract="true">
    <PDF source="inDoc"/>
    <FilenameEncoding encoding="ISO-8859-1"/>
    </FileAttachments>
    </DDX>
    Now i got the attachmentInfo.xml with the informartion of all the attachments.
    My problem is how to actually get hold of the attachments inside the PDF.
    Pls help.
    Thanks
    Abhiram

    The trick to this is in the results that the DDX returns.   When using the FileAttachments tag in a DDX the result is not just the attachments, but also an XML that describes the attachments. 
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/livecycle/8.2/ddxRef/000663.html
    The description file (identified using the “result” attribute in the DDX) goes into a Map stored in AssemblerResult.object.documents.   The extracted documents are also stored in this map. 
    By reading the description XML file you can tell the file name, content type and location (key) of the attachments. A simple loop is used to read the XML file, find the attachments (by the key in the Map) and write them to the file system.

  • I have received emails with attachments such as  .wmv  .avi etc     How do I open them on my new iMac ?

    How do I open attachments such as .

    These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear/play pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs running Tiger, Leopard and Snow  Leopard, but has not been tested on Lion, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
    First read this: Adding additional media format support to Quicktime:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3526
    Download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac and operating system, of:
    RealPlayer SP for Mac from:
    http://www.real.com/realplayer/mac
    Flip4Mac WMV Player from  http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm  (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
    Perian from  http://perian.org/
    You should read this support page  http://perian.org/#support   in case you need to delete older codecs.  In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them), particularly any DivX extension to Safari. However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from  http://www.divx.com/en/software/mac
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl ash
    You can check here what version of Flash player you actually have installed:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version, 10.2.152.25, 10.3.x beta, or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.
    * Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html  and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. The first one on the list, Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    You should also consider the Shockwave Player, which displays Web content that has been created by Adobe Director, much used for multimedia:  http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/internet_utilities/adobeshockwaveplayer.ht ml
    Note that if are running an Intel Mac you need version 11 of Shockwave Player as previous versions only run natively on PPC Macs:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/822/82216d24.html
    Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them) to enable Java.
    Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz, and that you have selected 'Built in Audio'.
    Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
    You should also consider having the free VLC Player from  http://www.videolan.org/  in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.
    There is an additional 'fix' you could try if you are having problems with Flash and Quicktime, depending on which type of Mac you have:
    On Intel Macs using OS X prior to Lion,, make sure that you are not running Safari in Rosetta. You can check this, and change it, in the Get Info window.
    On PPC Macs, go to the Hard Disk/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, and drag the file 'QuickTime Plugin.webplugin' to the desktop. Quit and restart Safari. If things have improved you can trash that file. If they haven't put it back, as the lack of this plug-in can cause QT content in some widgets to cease functioning.
    With SilverLight, Microsoft attempted to create their own version of what a replacement for Flash could be - but not to universal acclaim. You can read more about it here:
    http://silverlight.net/
    So, if you go to any sites that have been designed for this new Silverlight stuff, you can download the plug-in from here (but make certain that you are downloading SilverLight v.1.0 for OS X (10.4.8 upwards) if you are using a PPC Mac, but even this will not work with Safari 4. Version 2 only works with Intel Macs and does work with Safari 4/5. The solution is to download and install the latest version of Flip4Mac, which now includes a Silverlight component:
    http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.htm
    But the latest news is that Microsoft will probably abandon Silverlight in favour of HTML5:
    http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/10/10/29/apples_ios_pushes_microsoft_to_dia l_down_silverlight_for_html5.html  and
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-11673384
    Recommendation: Close all applications before installing any of the above, repair permissions, reboot, and repair permissions again.

  • Attaching files as Attachments, not INLINE attachments

    I'm sending images to a client who's on Lotus Notes (7.02). We have discovered an issue with inline attachments in Lotus, where attachments can only be drag and dropped out of Lotus if the attachment was NOT sent as an inline attachment.
    This was tested in Thunderbird by changing the mail.contentdispositiontype preference as per this article:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Sendattachments_as_realattachments
    In any event, the client is not able to switch from Lotus to OS X mail or any other client– as this is a large organization.
    The issue is easily fixed on my end by using Thunderbird– but that's not the path that I'd like to take–I'd like to know how to address this in OS X Mail.
    I've already clicked on windows friendly, send at end of message, and tried right clicking and setting the attachment to 'show as icon'– all in an attempt to get OS X Mail to send 'real' attachments, as opposed to inline.
    Does anyone know of a .plist file, or a hidden preference that can be enabled to address this?
    Thanks!

    exactly the same with on of my clients (Lotus, blocker, large org...). I have filed an problem case on this.
    http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2183.txt
    http://www.iana.org/assignments/mail-cont-disp
    My understanding is Apple Mail has no outgoing option (GUI) to set the "Mail Content Disposition Value" to "attachment" (RFC2183 2.2) to have an "user controlled display" as opposed to "inline" (RFC2183 2.1) and "displayed automatically" on the side of the recipient.
    In short the Summary (RFC2183 4.):
    +"Content-Disposition takes one of two values, `inline' and `attachment'. `Inline' indicates that the entity should be immediately displayed to the user, whereas `attachment' means that the user should take additional action to view the entity."+
    I also suggest we should also have a preference for incoming mail to not display content at all as "inline" regardless of the Content-Disposition Value if we want to.
    Btw. I am also missing the option (MDN) to request a notification that a message is delivered/read.

  • Help with inline display of a PDF

    Two problems I am having with the inline display of a PDF (not a link, not a separate window).
    First - the PDF has hyperlinks in it. If you spawn a separate window, the hyperlinks are active (clicking on the hyperlink will take you somewhere). If I use the APEX_UTIL.GET_BLOB_FILE_SRC within an object window, the PDF will display fine except when you hover over a hyperlink, you get the "hand" icon, and you can't click on the item. Is there a way to display the PDF within the same HTML region as the rest of the page but get the PDF to translate the hyperlinks into active links?? I am not sure if I should open this as a bug with Oracle or not.
    Second, I tried to duplicate the problem on apex.oracle.com.
    Everything works except when I try to display the PDF, all I get is a grey box instead of the PDF. Having done this multiple times before, it is a simple solution but I can't remember what it is...
    Any help I could get would be great.
    Thank you
    --rolf petersen
    The workspace on APEX.ORACLE.COM is:
    TESTTABFORMS
    UserID: TEST_USER
    PW: PDF_TEST
    check out application:
    TEST_PDF_LINK
    ID: 42403
    P.S. Just got back from APEXPosed 2013 - I loved the conference.

    I'm not positive but it seems the APEX_UTIL.GET_BLOB_FILE_SRC doesn't work when it references a file browse item on a page where the key is on the rowid.  I've copied the page to page 4 and changed it to use the bulletin_id. I've linked the bulletin id on the report to page 4

  • EmailReceiver QPAC doesn't retrieve 'content-disposition: inline' attachments

    Hi,
    [Note: this is kind of a follow-up thread for
    Email receiver QPAC does not retrieve attachments other than .jar. Thought, I better post a new thread.]
    I experimented quite a lot with the Email Receiver QPAC. Regarding my testing, it seems as though it doesn't recognize attachments from emails, whose
    content-disposition is set to 'inline'. In fact, if I set the content-disposition to 'attachment', then the same attachment in the same Email sent via the same Email server is retrieved.
    Does anyone experienced this as well?
    Does the EmailReceiver QPAC actually retrieve 'content-disposition: inline' attachments?

    Hi Howard,
    thank you for providing the new version!
    We'll contact support then. Since some popular email clients like Thunderbird are set to 'content-disposition: inline' by default but we don't want our users having to adjust their client settings rather trickily, it's pretty important to us that the EmailReceiver actually handles inline attachments.
    Regards,
    Steve

  • Embedded Files & Attachments within a PDF

    Hi all. We create PDF documents and attach other documents to the file. They show up as a litte pin or paperclip upon the pdf. If you have to open them on an ipad or iphone, my question is can you view these embedded/attached files on an ipad? Is their an app for that?!
    Thanks for your help...

    HI Tracy,
    It might be possible that the attachments in this pdf file have been added as Annotations which Adobe Reader on iOS doesn’t support currently.
    The workaround is to add attchments to the pdf using these steps:
    Using Desktop Acrobat you can do that. Follow these steps:
    Open the pdf file in which you want to add attachments
    Go to Tools
    Click on “Attach a file”
    Browse for the file which you want to attach and save the pdf file.
    Please let us know if you face any issue in doing this.
    Thanks,

  • Why can I open attachments (pptx and PDF) on iPhone but not on Mac?

    Why can I open attachments (pptx and PDF) on iPhone but not on my MacAir (OS X 10.9.2)? Generally, I can open PDFs on my Mac, but in this case, I opened on iPhone, and not on computer! Also pptx file from one sender opened on iPhone, and not on Mac, and the same pptx sent from another person wouldn't open on either! Help!

    Hi there.  I think as far as PowerPoint files go (pptx) you will need a copy of Office or some other compatible software (e.g. Keynote) to open it on your Mac.  On an iPhone there is a viewer built in just so you can take a look at most common attachment types.  If you have a copy of Microsoft Office on your Mac you should be able to open the pptx files in PowerPoint.
    OS X definitely has a PDF viewer, it's called Preview.  I think you can also load Adobe Acrobat if you want but I've stayed away from it for years as I find Preview faster and better.
    If you still can't open a PDF file attached to an email message on your MacAir by double clicking on it, could you let us know what error message you get, or what happens?  That will help people to help you.
