After scanning a doc into pdf format-- free adobe reader 9.0, I am unable to attach the doc to a yahoo OR gmail email. I thought Yahoo was the problem as when attempt to attach, screen just keeps telling me to "wait, attaching," but never does. I then attempted to attach same doc to gmail and I get the same results-- never attaches. I never used to have this problem but not sure if it has been since upgraded to 9.0 as don't remember when I DID upgrade!! Thanks.

Reader has nothing to do with this, since Reader does not create any 
files. You have some software that scans your pages to pdf. Before you 
try to upload the file as an email attachment you should make sure your 
scanning software closed the file. Then you should be able to attach it 
to an email. If you cannot then the problem lies with your system, not 
Reader, not gmail, nor yahoo.

Thank you for your reply; however, to what "system" are you referring when you say, "the problem lies with your system." I use Firefox & have Vista. Could it be the Vista? Now that I think about it, I recently bought a new laptop w/Vista and this may be my first attempt to attach docs to emails. My old laptop has XP & I never had any problems; I will try attaching from that computer. Ann

In this case by system, I mean both its hardware and/or software. It 
could be an operating system issue, it could be a problem with your hard 
drive. It is impossible to tell from this distance.
