Question
Hi Ken - How does one get an email to open with a pdf file? In other words we dont want recipients o view the pdf as an attachment but rather to open the email and see the pdf on the email. This is a sales letter. Would really appreciate your advice! Thanks.

Answer
Hi Maureen,

Different operating systems and different email programs can and do operate in different ways. As does Acrobat Reader vs Acrobat Professional or Standard.

What operating system, email program and Acrobat version (Reader or Professional) are you using?

Do you have Photoshop or another image editing program available?

Since pdf files cannot be inserted directly into email, knowing what you are using and what options you may have available will assist in creating a solution to your problem.

Thanks,

Ken Black
