How do you send a document via email?

How do you send a word document format through email?

  • I send my resume as an attached file on the email but, then they reply to my email and said this" Please send the resume in a word document format" I don't know what that means??

  • Answer:

    you need to be using microsoft word -- if you dont have it -- then try saving it as an *.rtf format that a rich text format and most word processors have the ability to save in that format

make sure the name of your file is ".doc" and that you created it in word. if you didn't, copy and paste it into microsoft word and save and reattach. otherwise try copy & pasting the text and just putting it inside the email. be careful to not use any bullet points, strange characters, or funky fonts. it's come out jumbled sometimes.

Do it as an attachment

It merely means it has to have the extention of .doc at the end of the name of your document in order for it to be successfully sent.

well try to convert the file to MS Word document. if you can't maybe just rewrite in in MS Word. It never happened to me before but I always use MS Word or MS Works

First you must know where the document is saved. Access the email that you want to send. Click the papeclip or attachment button. A small screen will open. At the top (SAVED IN - drop down menu), look for the folder you desire to attach. Sometimes you have to go into different folders until you get to the document you want. Click: insert. It should then take you back to your original mail with the attached document. Then click: Send.

The resume needs to be written in the Word program. You might have used WordPad or another word processing program.

There is a number of reasons why they might have said this. Check your microsoft word program. If it is out-dated (older than 4 years) some newer word programs won't be able to recognize it and the person on the other end will get an error message that says "unable to convert" and they won't be able to read it!!!! Make sure you are using microsoft WORD and not microsoft WORKS. Another thing: Check in your email account. Do you have it set on default to attach the document as an ATTACHMENT and not as in-line text? Make sure you have it attached properly, and attach it as an ATTACHMENT. Do you use a wierd email account that noone else has? Like you're using email from a university ([email protected]) or somewhere else wierd? Use an email account from a very popular one like ([email protected]). And your problems should be cured, I think. Test it out to make sure that you can send and open your resume by sending it to a friend and ask him or her to open it and preview it to make sure it works.
