I would like to be able to use the PrimoPDF Print Driver for E-mailing Pages of a PDF as an Attachment by Launching a New Outlook Message Directly.

I have Adobe Reader, but while you can E-mail an Entire PDF from Adobe Reader, you can't Email just a few Pages or Sections of the Document.

If I have a 250 Page PDF or Word Document and I only want to send 7 pages of it to someone by E-mail, I don't want to have to use 3 Steps to do it (Print to PDF/Save to File, Start New Outlook E-mail, Find and Attach File). I just want to "Print" or "Send" directly as a New E-mail. However, most of the "Send" to E-mail functions want you to "Send" the Whole File as an attachment and not just the Pages you select.

This is where the PRIMOPDF would be perfect. You already have an "Output Setting" of Print or Screen. Can you add a 3rd Choice of "Email as Attachment"? You could use a default "Output.PDF" name or use the name dialog box to give the attachment the name entered. However, rather than saving the PDF to file, it would appear automatically as an attached document in a New E-mail Message.

The Main difference between this method and all the other applications that allow you to Attach or Send a PDF is that you can Print just those Pages you want to send as an E-mail and Save Time without all the steps of having to first print/save and remembering where you saved the PDF document.
