Adobe acrobat error occurred while sending mail

The frustration of an error message!

The "Adobe Acrobat error occurred while sending mail" message is usually related to a problem with sending a PDF file via email using Adobe Acrobat. Here are some potential solutions to help you resolve the issue:

  1. Check your email settings: Ensure that your email client is properly configured and you have a stable internet connection. Try sending a test email using your email client to rule out any issues with your email settings.
  2. Update Adobe Acrobat: Make sure you're running the latest version of Adobe Acrobat. Sometimes, updates can resolve compatibility issues that might be causing the error.
  3. Disable antivirus software: Temporarily disable your antivirus software to see if it's interfering with the email sending process. Some antivirus software might flag the PDF file as malicious, causing the error.
  4. Check the PDF file: Ensure that the PDF file is not corrupted or damaged. Try opening the PDF file in Adobe Acrobat or another PDF viewer to see if it opens correctly.
  5. Use a different email client: If you're using a specific email client, try using a different one to see if the issue persists. This can help you determine if the issue is specific to the email client or Adobe Acrobat.
  6. Reset Adobe Acrobat preferences: Resetting Adobe Acrobat preferences can sometimes resolve issues like this. To do this, go to Edit > Preferences > General, and then click on the "Reset" button.
  7. Check for conflicts with other software: If you have other software installed on your system that uses email or PDF files, try closing those applications before trying to send the PDF file via email.
  8. Contact Adobe support: If none of the above solutions work, you can contact Adobe support for further assistance. They may be able to provide more specific guidance or troubleshooting steps.

Remember to always save a copy of your PDF file before trying to send it via email, in case the error occurs and you need to recover the file.
