The best is to store the file on your web site, maybe dropbox, or any online site and then send a link to the file inside your message. That's it!

If you use the 'Styled Text' format you can simply insert HTML code, as is. In your case, you can use the IMG tag to insert the image and the HREF to insert the link.

Let's see some example:

This code shows a 48x48 PDF icon stored on our site and links it to the maxprog home page:

<a href="https://www.maxprog.com"><img src="https://www.maxprog.com/pictures/doc_icon_pdf_48x48.png" /></a>

This is how it will look like ▸



This is the same but centered in the message body:

<a href="https://www.maxprog.com"><img src="https://www.maxprog.com/pictures/doc_icon_pdf_48x48.png" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto" /></a>

And this is how it looks like ▸



and with the file name below:

<a href="https://www.maxprog.com"><img src="https://www.maxprog.com/pictures/doc_icon_pdf_48x48.png" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto" /></a><center>My Document</center>

will appears this way ▸

My Document

and finally with filename linked to the file as well:

<a href="https://www.maxprog.com"><img src="https://www.maxprog.com/pictures/doc_icon_pdf_48x48.png" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto" /><center>My Document</center></a>

with this result ▸

My Document


Now some advanced stuff, let's add some text on the right:

<table style="width: 80%; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto">
<tr>
<td style="width: 80px; padding: 5px">
<a href="https://www.maxprog.com"><img src="https://www.maxprog.com/pictures/doc_icon_pdf_48x48.png" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto" /><center>Document</center></a>
</td>
<td style="text-align: justify; vertical-align: top; padding: 5px">

Same but with a frame:

<tr>
<td style="width: 80px; padding: 5px">
<a href="https://www.maxprog.com"><img src="https://www.maxprog.com/pictures/doc_icon_pdf_48x48.png" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto" /><center>Document</center></a>
