When i create a text file using WORD for Mac - and save it as a pdf file, it opens inside the email, when i attach the pdf doc?
I've tried PRINT-SAVE AS PDF. and Export as pdf, yet the documents always open inside the email?
I don't have this problem with PAGES, but I prefer using WORD to create text files.
Any suggestions or advice will be welcomed.

A single-page .pdf file, when attached to a Mail email message, will initially be displayed within the body of the email. You can use the step I suggested above to calm that.
A multi-page .pdf file will not display like that. Instead, it will be viewed as an icon as you would prefer.
There is a workaround. When you are composing documents that you know you will be attaching to email messages and you find yourself ending with a single page, just add a page break at the bottom of the doc. This forces a second page and a multi-page pdf when the document is converted or saved.

Once you have attached the pdf file in Mail and it is displaying its content, right click the image and select “View as icon”.
Unfortunately I know of no other way to change the behavior of Mail.
