Since Outlook is a Microsoft product you'd be better off asking them here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/outlook/ct-p/Outlook

since 18.3 update, pdf files wont open using outlook Since the 18.3 and now 18.3.1, pdf files will not open. We use Outlook to send them. Never an issue before the updates. This is on IPads, IPhones, and also Android devices.

Copy & paste Pdf in Mail not working This is happening only with Ventura! When I try to copy and paste a Pdf attachment (right click on it) there is no option to select that says "copy Pdf" or "copy file" but only "copy image"... which is already odd. If I click "copy image" it basically does not copy anything... How do you guys paste a Pdf attachment (without dragging it or saving it first) into a new email?
