assistance with attachment

My OH is trying to find if there is a way of sending, by email to a distribution list , a mail merge document as a PDF attachment? She wants to send one sheet, sequentially numbered to around 150 addresses in a distribution list. Any help from you technical guys out therewould be gratefully accepted!

Sounds simple enough.

What have we got to work with ? Mac/Windows/Linux ? Have you got an Adobe Acrobat license (i.e for the writer rather than the reader), because there are some handy tools that come with that ? I assume you're originating from a non-PDF document rather than trying to tweak an existing PDF ?
