I asked this same question at the Adobe forum but did not get a response.
I just upgraded to CS4 from CS3. In Acrobat 8 when I am viewing a PDF if I go to the File menu and select (Attach to Email) I am taken to my mac mail app and an email will have been created with the attachment and the subject line is filled in with the file name. With Acrobat 9 when I try to do the same thing it does not include the subject line. Is there some sort of preference I can change to get it to include a subject line? I send a lot of PDFs to customers and that feature in Acrobat 8 is a convenient time saver.
I think that Adobe may have removed this function unintentionally. If that is the case is it possible for a dummy like myself to add a script or something? I've seen mention of scripts and buttons in these forums but I'm not really sure how to do that. BTW, I'm using a Mac.
Thanks.
For your application you need to create a folder level automation scirpt. There are several articles on this site that will help you in this task.
