Using the "Attach" button in an existing e-mail message ("paperclip integration")
In an existing e-mail message, click the paperclip icon, select the file(s) you wish to attach, and then click the Attach Plus icon in the file selection dialog.
Note: Paperclip integration is not available in most web-based email applications
Choosing the Attach Plus print driver from the File > Print dialog
Using the File > Send To menu command from many Windows applications ("Send To integration")
Many software applications (e.g., Excel, Word, etc.) have a menu option that allows you to send the file you currently have open as an e-mail attachment.
Note:Â You must have Send To integration enabled in order to integrate Attach Plus with this function (learn how). Â This gives you the option of attaching an open, working document to an e-mail.
Attach Plus also allows you to attach the file to an e-mail in progress - something the regular Send To option doesn't allow.
Important Note: When 'File > Send To' integration is enabled, Attach Plus will configure itself as the default Windows e-mail client. In some instances, your e-mail application may show a dialog box warning you that it is no longer set as the default e-mail application. Â You may ignore this warning. Attach Plus ensures that Windows mail requests continue to be sent to your existing e-mail application, even though it is not configured as the default. Your existing e-mail application will continue to have the same functionality, even thought it is not the default e-mail application.
