Attaching Documents

To attach documents to your email, you first need to write the email. To read the directions on how to do that, if you need to, follow this link. Once the email is written, or ready to be sent, follow these directions to attach a document.

1. At the bottom of the composing an email window, there are some different options. Most of them you can ignore, but to attach a document, use the paperclip, or if you have a drive file, the drive symbol. The drive symbol is the symbol shaped like a triangle.

2. If you are attaching a file from your computer, such as a Word document, click the paperclip. That will bring up a box that you can then navigate to the file in.

3. If you would like to add a Google Docs document, click the Drive symbol. That will bring up a box that looks like this:

4. Navigate to the file you'd like to attach. In the lower right hand corner of the box, you can choose either Drive Link or Attachment. My suggestion is to just keep it a drive link. Since all Drive Documents are already online, all you really need to do is link to the document.

5. Once it is attached, you can just send it.
