Hal asked about "corruption errors" in Mac-created PDFs read (or not

e-mail attachments and didn't check "Send Windows Friendly
Attachments"? If so, may the PDFs could be fine but getting garbled
somehow at the e-mail border?
While Neal's suggestion may be the solution to Hal's problems, there may
be other issues.
I believe there are some inherent problems with sending PDF files as
attachments.
As the director of a community band, I frequently send out PDF files of
printouts of schedules and such, so they remain easy to read and
formatted to fit on a single page (as opposed to simply pasting the text
into an e-mail message and letting the members fend for themselves on
legibility issues).
I send the same file as an attachment to everybody on the e-mail list
for the band and there are 3 or 4 who get nothing but garbage in the
body of the e-mail and no attachment, yet the other 80 get it just fine
as an intact PDF file.
When I zip the file and send it, everybody gets it just fine.
Sort of like years ago when folks couldn't send .mus finale files to
anybody where the message either originated or terminated at AOL.
Perhaps this is the problem? Either the e-mail server the recipient
uses or the e-mail client isn't properly handling PDF attachments.
