Sending .pdf files -- Need Help.

Whenever I try to send a .pdf file, it includes the entire file in the body of my email. I want to send it as an attachment. Most people that I send these emails to have a hard time reading the file.
I hope that makes sense. Thanks in advance for your help.

It is being sent as an attachment.
The Mail.app displays all image/photo and single page PDF attachments inline or viewed in place within the body of the message by default which cannot be turned off and is not the same as being embedded.
You can control-click on such an attachment in the message body and at select View as Icon but this does not change anything in regards to the attachment.
Depending on the recipient's email client and available preference settings, such attachments may appear inline or viewed in place within the body of the message when the message is opened (as with the Mail.app) or as attached files only which must be opened separately to be viewed which the sender has no control over.
That being said, there are a few things you should not do with a single page PDF attachment.
Do not use the Image Size adjustment available at the bottom right of the message window which is intended and should only be used with a picture/image attachment.
Be sure the file extension is used with the attached file which applies to any attachment.
When sending attachments to Windows user, be sure to select Send Windows Friendly Attachments - which I have on by default regardless of sending attachments to Windows or Mac users.
Are you using RTF for message composition and including a Signature?

  • I can't get my print widget to display certificate in PDF file, need help.

    I can get my certificate to display with all the variables on the slide, inserted my print widget which asks for a location to save the pdf file. I save it, open it and its blank.
    Any suggestions?

    Centering an entire page's worth of content is pretty simple, but not as simple as adding align:center to the css of every element.
    You likely need to remove a bunch of stuff from your css if that's what you were trying. Seeing the page is going to be the best way to tell you how to fix it.
    Many people will use a container like <div id="wrapper"> to center their page, so that's what I'll use in the example. Here is the css that would go in your page's <style> tags, or in your external .css file...
    #wrapper {
         width:950px;
         margin:0 auto;
    Then in the html...
    <body>
    <div id="wrapper">
         all of your page's content
    </div>
    </body>
    What this does is creates a 950 pixel wide wrapper around all of your content (the pixel amount isn't as important as the fact that there is a width that is less than 100%). The browser then sets the left and right margin to the same setting using all of the available horizontal space by setting the left and right margins to auto. Basically, if the browser viewport is wider than the wrapper div (anything more than 950 pixels in this example), the left and right margin will split that remaining amount between themselves and center your content.

  • .pdf file changed into .tmp when trying to send pdf file as attachment

    Dears,
    A few days now, .pdf files are exported as .tmp files if we try to send them as attachment directly from the adobe reader plug-in in internet explorer 8.
    Unfortunatly Outlook interprets .tmp files as harmfull, so we are no longer able to send pdf files directly.
    (screenshot in attachment)
    Is there any chance we can configure this so, pdf files are exported as .pdf instead of .tmp
    More details:
    OS               : Win XP SP3
    browser        : ie 8
    plug in          : Adobe PDF Link Helper (not sure this is the one that provides us the pdf reader functionallity dough)

    I cannot reproduce that (Adobe Reader 11.0.3, IE8, Win XP-SP3).  In fact, I cannot even see the Attach to Email option, but the file name is correct.

  • I have an iPad 2, and I am sending PDF file to my iPad, via a Hotmail email. But, the PDF arrives to the iPad in Mail already opended, as a picture on the bottom of the email. Is there a way to prevent it from auto open, so I can open with iBooks instead?

    I have an iPad 2, and I am sending PDF files to my iPad, via a Hotmail account. But, the PDF arrives to the iPad Mail account already opened at the bottom of the email. Is there a way to prevent this auto-opening of the PDF. I've seen screen shots with the box, and PDF listed inside the box, but mine open automatically. I want to get them into iBooks...?

    I am having the same problem and it is even bigger.
    When opening a 1-page PDF in iBooks and sending it via mail it is sent inline as preview, but the recipient cannot open the file anymore. Also on iPad and iPhone there is no "open in" possible.
    Somehow the mail app does destroy the file. What is going wrong?

  • Not able to send pdf file as attachment in my apple mail.

    Hi, I was easily able to attach pdf files to my apple mail.  infact I could just open a pdf file and then send it as attachment in the email earlier. but after downloading and upgrading to os X Mountain lion, I am neither being able to attach and send pdf files in my apple mail, nor can I send PDF file as an attachment.
    Is there any issue with OS X Mountain Lion.
    Issue 1.  I compose Email , then click attach > Browse > select pdf file > click attach > it shows in my Email body either as an icon or as first page of the pdf document > I send it. >>> But when the receipient opens the Email, that pdf attachment is missing. In fact When I put a cc to my self and I open the Email, the attachment is mssing in the incoming E amil.
    Issue 2. I open the PDF document > Click on File > send as attachment in E-Mail > on right, a menu appears where I select the File and click attach> I get a message
    The SendMail doesnot know how to talk to your default mail client. Please select a different mail application to use. Attaching a screen shot.
    I never had these issues earlier with my Lion OS . but since the time I have upgraded to mountain Lion OS, I am having these issues.
    Are these the Mountain Lion issues, how to fix these please.

    I believe, the software team forgot to put a button for send or share as an attachment to preview.

  • How to Sender PDF file as attachment in Payload?

    Hi Experts,
         After I done some of PI scenarios, I'm stuck with one of my requirement... In requirement, "Web service" will send request to "SAP ECC 6" in order to get PO document print out in PDF file by call smartform or any form printing as usual.
         In my understand, I'm using SOAP adapter as sender and RFC adapter in receiver side, in  RFC function, I will call form and generate PDF file by using normal ABAP function, but here, how can I send PDF file as response message of SYNC call from web service.
         I try to search and read some of document and blog, some said I can attach file as Payload attachment, but no clear solution or guide to do so.
        Here is example blog that I found, I really useful
           /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2006/04/19/xi-rfc-or-abap-proxy-abap-proxies-with-attachments
        Please suggest me in my case,
    Thanks in advance...
    Cheers,
    Terry

    Hi,
    >>In my understand, I'm using SOAP adapter as sender and RFC adapter in receiver side, in RFC function, I will call form and generate PDF file by using normal ABAP function, but here, how can I send PDF file as response message of SYNC call from web service.
    as per my blog you can attach PDF to a message only if you use abap proxy on ECC and not RFC
    the code is just copy and paste from my blog:
    /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2006/04/19/xi-rfc-or-abap-proxy-abap-proxies-with-attachments
    so there is nothing spectacular there

  • Please help..question about sending pdf file from my ipad to another

    I have a pdf file in Kindle that shows up under documents. I am wanting to locate it and send it from my ipad to another..whether through email or even share through kindle. I contacted kindle and they said I have to contact apple with instructions to retreiving the pdf before I can send it. Anyone know how to do it. It shows up in docs on my kindle app but doesnt show up in itunes or on amazon. Help appreciated!!!!

    I copied this from another discussion - that ironically enough - James and I both participated in. The OP never responded to what I suggested, but I think that this may work.
    I think that the Kindle app uses file sharing so see if you can transfer the files to the computer via iTunes with file sharing.
    iOS: About File Sharing
    Then drag the pdf file from the file sharing window (or use the save to button) onto your desktop. Email it from there and you can even email it to yourself on the iPad and store it any other other PDF app that you may have.

  • Help with sending pdf files

    how do i send a pdf file i receieved in a email or can i go to my email and print it off

    In Adobe reader, Click File > Send File, and the file will be put as an attachment in your email client.
    Else just do a manual insert like any other attachment.
