Why My Gmail Not Receiving Pdf Attachments?

Follow the below guidelines if you gmail not receiving Pdf attachments.

At times, in Gmail, when you attach a PDF file to your email, the recipient might not receive the attachment. Or, when someone else sends you an email along with a PDF attachment, you will receive the email, but not the attachment. Many factors contribute to the occurrence of this issue. Let us look into some of them:

Google stripping attachments:

In case you receive an email that should be having a PDF attachment, but it is not having one, it does not mean that the attachment is lost. Usually, Google does not strip PDF attachments from any of the incoming emails. Nevertheless, Google does it occasionally for bandwidth or security reasons.

Insufficient storage space:

In case your inbox is full of email messages, and the storage space has limitations (like a few megabytes), then the PDF attachment someone sends will not be received by you.

Size of the PDF attachment:

All the email providers do not permit users to send and receive large attachments. In case the PDF file that you wish to send or receive is of a larger size than 20 MB, it is better to utilize an online service. You can use this online service to store the PDF file. You can then easily share the file’s location in your email.

Attachment with a virus:

Please ensure that the attachment you are going to send or receive is free from viruses, spyware, malware, or Trojans. You can confirm this by scanning your attachment before you send or receive. In case your attachment does contain a virus, Gmail might reject it automatically so that your system or the receiver’s system will not get infected.

Installed antivirus:

The antivirus installed on your system might raise the problem. If so, then try disabling your antivirus program temporarily. This action might resolve your issue. The above five reasons might interfere with the gmail not receiving Pdf attachments.
