If you have a nice-looking PDF file that you want to distribute to your contacts via an email newsletter, you'll have to convert it to HTML code first. You can then edit the code to your liking. If you want to convert your PDF file to HTML format to send in an email, you can do so in just a few simple steps using a free utility from Google.

Step 4
Click "View" then choose "Source," "Page Source" or something similar on your browser menu (this varies depending on your browser and version) to bring up the page source of the PDF turned HTML file. Copy the code to your clipboard using "CTRL + C."

Compose a new message in your email account again (use any email service that supports HTML) and paste in the HTML code. Modify the code to your liking. Send the email to yourself first to view the contents of the PDF file turned HTML email.
