Attach a PDF to an Email

Studioware contains a File Manager that allows you to upload and organize your files, including PDFs.  A link to a PDF file can be sent in an email.  If you are using the Studioware Email Server to send your emails, Studioware will also track which customers have clicked on the PDF.  To include a PDF link in your email, follow these instructions:
  1. Follow the instructions in the Related Articles to upload your PDF to Studioware
  2. Create/Edit a custom letter.  Please see the Related Articles for more information
  3. Enter (and format) some text that will be used as the link to the PDF.  For example, "Event Details":
  4. Hi-light the text, and click on the "Link" button.  Next, click on "Browse Server" and select the PDF you want to link to the selected text:
  5. Save the letter.  If you student/parents click on the "Event Details" in the email they receive, the PDF will be displayed.

  2. Click on the "Button" toolbar item:
