Why this workflow matters
Attachments are easy to lose, hard to update, and often fail when the PDF is large. A hosted PDF link keeps the file easy to open and easier to reuse.
This is useful for schools, nonprofits, publishers, support teams, and local businesses that need PDFs to open cleanly, stay easy to share, and provide better follow-up signals than a normal attachment.

Copy the link, embed code, QR code, or download URL that fits the workflow.
