As of this morning, multiple users are no longer able to attach a file to email from within Acrobat Reader without a login.

 I also noticed on a new install that the email option is greyed out.   

Do we need an Acrobat Standard or Pro license to email an attachment from Acrobat now?

Once the user toggled "Attach Link" off it worked as expected.   The option had been enabled when they were used to it being off.    (This did happen for multiple users)  

Sorry I didn't see that before posting.

I created a login to see what would happen,  but it just uploaded the file to Document Cloud then created a link to add to Outlook instead of attaching the file.   Very disappointing.

Hi ralcon19504261,

 

Thank you for your patience so far.

 

To send the PDF as an email attachment, disable the "Send link in attach to email (Sign-in required)" option in Acrobat Preferences.

Go to Edit > Preferences >  Email accounts in Acrobat or Acrobat Reader on a Windows machine. For Mac, Application Preferences > Email accounts.

Refer to the screenshot attached below:
