Article Summary

When it is necessary to export documents to give them to someone who does not have access to Laserfiche, emailing them directly from the system is often the simplest thing to do.

Documents can be emailed as images or PDF files and sent from your local email account. Laserfiche can even warn you if your attachments exceed a specific size or Zip a group of attachments to save effort and bandwidth.

The E-Mail Plug-In allows you to send attachments straight to Microsoft Outlook via two ways:

  1. You can either simply drag the document(s) from the Laserfiche Client into your Microsoft Outlook window
  2. You can select the document(s) you wish to send and choose File > Email Document(s). You will then be able to choose a file type for any imaged documents.
Note:
E‐mailing documents requires the Laserfiche E‐Mail Plug‐In.

Note:
Difference between sending the document as a link or as a copy is that when sending a document as link, the recipient should have access to Laserfiche in order to view and work on the document. On the contrary, when sending a document as a copy, the recipient will be able to view it through a PDF reader.
