COVID 19 - The Send As Email popup with Attach a Link option is killing our productivity.

In the old acrobat - you could click the email icon and it would instantly create an email with your PDF attached for you to send out. Now in Acrobat DC - it pops up the 'Send by Email' where you have to pick your mail client and unselect 'Attach a Link' to get to the same point.

Now in the days of COVID-19...we are all working from home. Our company is sending thousands of documents a day by email and this extra unnecessary step is killing our employees productivity.

At least give us a way to disable it in preferences or a registry hack or something.

Its costing our company every day in valuable time.

Thank you.

I agree, which is why I've developed a free tool that allows you to generate an email with your PDF file attached to it with a single click, exactly because of this unfortunate "Share" panel that was introduced recently.

I don't think that solves our problem it's still the same number of extra clicks to generate an email.

It's exactly two clicks.
