Q: In Preview, how do I create PDF's that will open as the body of an email?

I need to have my PDF's (which are announcements) open as the body of an email as opposed to an attachment. Does anyone know how to do this in Preview? Or do I need adobe acrobat? Thanks!

    Is there some reason you posted this in the Photos for Mac Application forum? I do not believe it involves this application.

    There is no way you can control how your recipient's email client displays your attachments. The email client may have options to allow the user to see or not see attachments inline, but it is up to them.

     

    Mail will always mark attachments as "Inline," but the recipient can choose to ignore that suggestion.

    Mail will display the first page of a PDF inline, but other email clients may not.
