Why won't pdf files embed into Mail

I cannot embed a pdf file into the body of an email - I've done this before using Mail but cannot seem to accomplish it now. Even though I sent a photo only hours before by attaching it to an email and it embeded automatically. I'm trying to send a fundraising letter accompanied with a newsletter and brochure, all 3 in pdf format. Only the letter needs to be embedded, I guess, although it would be nice if all of them could be read without downloading the attachment, unless the recipients want to do this. Karen

Same here. Before it worke fine but now it just displays the small attachment logo. The pdf file is 3,5 mb in size. Before even bigger ones have embeded so the cover photo of them has been shown where it is draged and dropped. Spent some valuable weekend time on this job issue so i am crying a river.
Any ideas?

Why won't pdf files print from Safari?

why won't pdf files print from Safari? I get blank pages. They print fine from Firefox. OS X 10.8.4

Back up all data.
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Why don't pdf files show in Mail?

Since upgrading to 10.7 my pdf files don't show properly when sent as an attachment in Mail. One-page pdf files don't display as they used to. All I get is a message in the body of the Mail saying 'plugin missing.' How do I fix this?

Why won't PDF files open anymore?

Suddenly my iMac won't open most .PDF files - specifically those that are imbedded in the body of emails or may be identified by a hotlink on websites. But if one is simply attached to an email, that seems to open!?! The only thing I think I've done since everything worked properly was to agree to install Adobe Reader 10.1.3 and Adobe Flash Player. Can anyone help me to rectify whatever error I'm experiencing so that I can open .PDF files once again? Thanks, in advance, for your help!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Why won't pdf files save as txt?

I used Adobe Reader X on my Windows XP PC to copy multiple pdf files to txt files so I could add information to them. I didn't need them as pdf files anyway. Since having had to buy a new PC, (Windows 7), the pdf files that I 'Save As' txt files are empty once copied. I tried copying a pdf file I'd successfully copied to txt on my old PC and it too is empty once copied to txt. Anyone have any ideas? Thank you.

Thank you for your response, but the "save as text" (.txt) is what is now resulting in an empty file. It used to produce a full text file.

Why won't PDF files print from the internet on my MacBook Pro?

I have a MacBook Pro using OS X 10.7.4. I open pdf files at websites but when I try and print them there is no content in the document. The same document on my PC prints without problem. What's the issue?

if your not using adobe, and the native mac application, try a save as then try printing

Why won't new files import into LR 3.6?

So, there are a couple of new .TIFs that I want to import into an existing LR folder. Under Import the window shows both of those new files, each checked, as the only ones not already in the LR library. So I click on import and one of three things happens: (1) they immediately import, (2) the window goes blank forever except for a message that there's nothing to import, (3) the window goes blank forever with a message "Import in progress...". This is infuriating, expecially since there appears to be no way to escape from this infinite import loop. Note: the newly named files open perfectly in PhotoShop when it is invoked outside of LR. What is LR seeing that PS is not seeing, and how do I correct this bug? Or at least make an orderly retreat from the infinite loop?

Why won't pdf files display in safari?

I just upgraded to Lion I am trying to view douments on a website I had no issue with on Leopard. But now it is saying that the plug in is missing. I checked other options I removed the adobe plug-in and nothing. Then when i download the coument Preview isn't displaying it property. It's illegible had a bunch of dots and lines through the text.

From the Safari menu bar, select Help > "Installed Plug-ins." Is the Adobe PDF plugin installed? If so, remove it from /Library/Internet Plug-Ins, relaunch Safari, and try again. That's the Library folder at the top level of your startup volume, not the (invisible) one in your home folder.

Any idea why images in pdf files turn into negatives?

I have noticed that anything saved in a pdf format, shows up as a negative on the ipad. Pictures and colours used in headers, etc. Very strange. Have noticed this in Goodreader as well as in email.
Thanks.

More information is needed. How are the PDF's being created? Where are they coming from? All the same source or any PDF you open on the iPad? Have you tried a reset? Restore? Other?

Why won't pdf files open from flash drive?

Some files I have on a flash drive will not open. Some error messages say file is damaged and cannot be repaired or cannot read (109) or internal error.

Damn. What about files that say "internal error"? Those files I have can open up, but some of the pictures and pages and text is missing on those files.

Why won't P2 files import into fcpx 10.3

I used the same workflow in fcp7 and X. DVCProHD capture on P2 cards, then imported as camera. Suddenly since upgrading to the newes fcpx I get an "import failed" message, and fcpx will only work from the camera files - no import. I tried new events, new project and event, import from archive, import from original card. No go.Nothing in my workflow has changed except the "upgrade." Has anyone else experienced this?

Why does a PDF file created in Pages, attached to e-mail, not get sent?

They send for me, my test document was 3.8 MB.

Why won't .vcf files automatically open in Numbers anymore?

Why won't my .vcf folder from Mail open automatically in Numbers anymore?

Bob,
Have you tried opening the VCF files in Numbers 2.3 instead of the new version? Please review this information:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6991
The best way to get contacts into a table in the new version of Numbers is to copy them from the "Contacts" application and paste into Numbers. In the previous version of Numbers you dragged contacts from Numbers (version 2.3) and dropped them on a sheet in Numbers.

Why wont my PDF files upload to my website?

I have not been able to upload certain PDF files to my website. They upload to my (non-website) e-mail as attachments fine, but not to the wesbite. Other file formats, and very small 'test' PDFS upload fine, but ones over 2MB, whether 'locked' or not, just wont upload. The status bar gets about a tenth of the way across, then I get an error message.
Can anyone offer a solution?

It says "the document has features not supported in this reader" and I haven't been able to open it in literally anything except for on my friend's laptop, nothing on my tablet will open it and there isn't many things I can download on the tablet instead

What error messages are you seeing (if any) when trying to open the PDF file with Adobe Reader Touch?
Have you been able to open that PDF file with other PDF software, e.g. Adobe Reader XI?
