Hi All,

With the new version, i can no longer click the email button and it attaches the pdf to outlook.

Now, I have to select email-> send as attachment -> select type (Microsoft outlook/ web mail) -> continue which takes me to outlook.

Is it possible to configure default which takes me direct to outlook when I press the email icon?

    Your request highlights the extra steps introduced in the new version when emailing a PDF. You can mention that previously, clicking the email button directly attached the PDF to Outlook, but now, the process requires selecting the email option, choosing the type (Microsoft Outlook or web mail), and then continuing to Outlook. You're asking if it's possible to configure a default setting that bypasses these steps and directly opens Outlook when the email icon is pressed. This will help streamline your workflow.
