How to Embed a PDF in an Email
Portable Document Format (PDF) files allow users to create secure, professional documents that may include text, pictures, video, and other graphics. The process for including PDF information in the body of an email varies depending upon the platform you use as well as the type of information you want to copy.
- Open Microsoft Outlook and compose a message.
- Move the cursor where you want to embed a PDF object by clicking inside the email body, then press Enter once or twice to make room for the PDF.
- Select the Insert tab and click Object in the Text section. Click Create From File, choose Browse and locate the PDF you want to embed. Select the file and choose Open to insert it into your email. Below the Login dialog box select Use Company Credentials (SSO).
- Drag the object handles to resize the PDF. The eight rectangular handles are located on each corner and side of the object.
- When you're satisfied with the object's size and placement, enter your recipient's email address in the To field and click Send. Enter your netid@creighton.edu and Blue Password.
