    It's not just email. The pictures some people post on Ancestry.com are the size of a postage stamp. When you attempt to enlarge them, they fall apart.

    Hi, thanks for the video. When I send an email with images and PDF documents, all of the users outlook on windows receive many attach files with extensions .htm or other. Do you know how can I solve this issue?

    Jorge: So you send a PDF document or an image (jpg) and your recipients get a .htm file? That's very strange. In Edit, Attachments, do you have "windows-friendly" selected?

    Hi Gary. I notice you paste the pic into the body of your mails. You don't use 'attach file' to send images? I normally check my image(s) in 'Preview', use 'tools' 'adjust size' and then select 'custom 1920x1920' before sending as an attachment. This is a decent, useful size, isn't it? What are the pro's and con's of this compared to pasting in the body of the mail.

    Hubert: You can do that. It is just a lot of steps and most people are looking for quick ways to do it.
