Hi All
As of late I've been having trouble attaching PDF files to an
Email, When I attach or drag a PDF to the message it blows open
on the page. I don't want that, I want the file to be in PDF
form. The only way I can stop this is to Zip it. I'm sure I have
a setting or something wrong. Any one have the same problem?

Mail displays 1 page pdfs instead of the icon in the outgoing
messages because it can and it thinks you want to see it. It is
still sending it as an attached pdf.
I send many multi-pdf emails. Frequently 1 multipage pdf and a few
single page ones in the same email. Mail displays all the single
page ones in the outgoing email and a pdf icon for the multipage.
The recipient still gets them all as pdfs.
I have tried sending them to myself and as the recipient when I
open the mail the PDF blows open. I don't want every one in the
next cubicle to see the PDF until the recipient does. This seems to
be a new occurrence. Also I think it's mostly on my MBP 10.6.4.
It is the default Mail way of doing things and I can not see a way to
turn it off in 10.4. The only kludge I can think of is to add a bunch
of blank lines at the end to make it a 2 page pdf. Then it will show
up as the icon.
That will at least save you the zip kludge workaround.
