i'm afraid to resize them and loose too much detail.
these are legal documents, death cert, will , etc.
there are over 20pages i need to send to both neices now.
still working on it, i will get there or die trying.
hugz,
jeanne

The format, etc will enlarge the total size of the email but not that
much.
You are doing this in plain text, right?! That will reduce KBs. Do you
have a zip program? Oh, what are the pixel dimensions of the scanned
document? Can you resize it to make it smaller and still readable?

OK.... that's about 11x17 inches. Does it have to be that large?

you could reduce the size of one page and use the save as using a different
name and see if it's still legible.

i think i got something working here.
Using MSWord, i 'inserted' three of the documents(jpg files) into one page,
resized them a bit, then saved as html files.
that file is now only 423kb for three page, better than 890kb each.
now to do the same with the rest of files.
unless there is still a better way i've not found yet.
still open to ideas.

Instead of Clicking on Attachment Click Insert that way it shouldn't come
into the body of the message.

was thinking i tried that yesterday but ok, i tried it again just now.
open new email address to myself for test, insert/file attachment, send.
check the outbox before i send it and there that damn jpg in the body of the
msg.
bugger, bugger, bugger, bugger, bugger, bugger, bugger.
yes 7 times for it to get this feeling out of my system again this morning.
will keep trying.
so far i've managed to load 3 jpgs into one MSWord document, reduce the size
a bit but so still legible, save and use that as a tester. it works but i'd
still like to put all these jpgs into one file. gonna try some pdf file
things today.
fingers crossed sumpin works better than it has so far.
hugz,
neajen

OOoooops, Sorry. Didn't mean to do that to you. It's just that when I get
paperclips the photos and included in the msg. But when I send Insert they
aren't.
Computers are wonderful are they not? )

no worrys Ruth.
i'm just getting rather frustrated with this.
running out of time as the envelopes are in the mail as i type and i'd like
to have these files there before the mail arrives. they might need time to
read and 'digest' all the official documents before then.
hugz,
jeanne
