Important – File size: if the PDF file is over 1MB it will take a few seconds to download depending on the clients internet connection.
If you do insert a large file and send, insert a warming statement about the file size so clients know to wait for the download and not to get click crazy!! If file is 2MB;  2 click = 4 MB, 3 clicks 6MB etc
