I have recently changed from PC to MAC and am generally pleased.
However, using Eudora on the PC, when an in-coming e-mail shows an
attached .pdf file as an icon, I can click on it and it comes up in
Acrobat. Can print it from there.

On the MAC OS X, using Eudora 6.0, the file appears in the body of the
message (no icon to click on) and if I try to print it, only the
accompanying e-mail message prints; not the .pdf file. What am I
missing? How do I get it to be printable?

TIA

Rosemary

Have you tried to double-click the *PDF preview* in the message's body
to open it in Acrobat Reader? That works for me.

If you don't like the different behaviour you might want to uncheck
"Display Graphics in messages" in -> Preferences -> Fonts & Display.

I kind of like it though. A multi-page PDF displays as a quicktime movie
that you can flip through - really nice!

Cheers Martin

Thanks, Martin. Unchecking that box did the trick.
