    Saving PDF Email Attachments

    Then you need to "forward" the email to the person. Forwarding retains the attachment and lets you add different recipients and compose a message while also being able to remove the original message the the "FW:" subject prefix. Easy!
    No, this does not work in real world scenarios, unfortunately.

    Suppose I received the e-mail with the .pdf attached. I open the .pdf with Adobe Reader. The .pdf is automatically saved to the phone. Suppose I delete the e-mail; the .pdf is still saved and can still be opened by Adobe Reader. What if I want to send
    it to somebody a week later, but the original e-mail is deleted, or it has fallen off my server sync? I can't forward the original message, and there is no way to send the .pdf attached to a new message.

    Bch238, There is no way to do it as you have asked.

    The only way is to forward the original email. At this time attachments for new emails from the phone are only for pictures.

    "Message can'not be saved as draft" PDF won't attach to email

    How to save the email attachments as PDF

    Prior to Windows 10. If I downloaded a file sent via email it was saved as a pdf. Now it opens up in explorer (not the internet program I use) and is saved as the email. Many attachments I need to save and send later to others. Can they still be saved
    as pdf's?

    original title: email attachments
