I copied a PDF file to send to our email list. In the PDF there was a link to click to take people to our website. But when you click on it it takes you to a Constant Contact PDF file. Help

Hello @BarbaraL7879 ,

 

PDFs can't be directly embedded into the email - only linked to. Only the image versions can be directly embedded into the email. You'd either need to go with the standard PDF email route of encouraging your recipients to click and view the full document (via a text, button, or image link), or you'd need to recreate / emulate the document design in the builder.
