Attaching PDF to email

Hello,


I am having trouble attaching a PDF document to an email. It does not seem to attach the file but instead put the attachment in the body of the email, as though it has copied and pasted the document. I have no idea why this is doing this. Any ideas?


Thank you to anyone that can help!

Assuming you are using Apple Mail, you can make sure the pdf file is 'valid' and 'openable' by double clicking on it in your Finder. If it cooperates, then it should be good and you can drag it into your outgoing mail message. IF you wish, you can also select File > Print > Click on the PDF Button on bottom left then select > Send in Mail and Apple Mail will package it up for you (whatever you wish to send) and send it. Hope this helps.
