Hi, I want to send a PDF to friends to sponsor me for the MDA Lock-Up. Many
friends have blockers for attachments so I want to add it to the body of the
message. I have seen this done before, but cannot figure out how to do it.
The PDF has both images and text. Can someone help?

Thanks!

You can't. If the pdf-file shows in the body than you're composing in Rich
Text format and not HTML or Plain Text. This doesn't matter in terms of
blocked attachments. The only way around it is to copy the contents of the
pdf-file into the message body or put the pdf-file on a web server and share
the link with your friends.

When I try to copy the pdf file only the text comes through, no images. I
tried copying it directly from Publisher and it did the same thing. I also
have this trouble when I am trying to send clients flyers on homes. (I am a
Realtor.) It will show the text, but not the pictures on the flyer.

Thanks,
