Interaction between Publisher 2007 and Outlook 2003

I have tried all the Microsoft Support areas I can find, but I cannot find
the solution to my problem.
I created a document in Publisher. I have saved it both as a publisher
document and a pdf as well.
I want to include the entire publication (it's just one page) in the body of
my email. Publisher says that I can do it:

" Important To use the Send E-mail command in Office Publisher 2007, you
must have one of the following programs installed on your computer:

Microsoft Office Outlook 2007
Microsoft Office Outlook 2003
Outlook Express (version 5.0 or later)
Windows Mail "

I have Microsoft Office Outlook 2003. When I follow instructions (as
indicated in Publisher) when I'm trying to send this document in the body of
my Outlook 2003 email, Outlook now tells me that I have to use Outlook
Express as my default email in order to make this work....
I don't want to use Outlook Express as my default mail. I think I'm missing
something in Outlook 2003 to make this work?????
I would be fine with emailing the PDF form of the document, but it seems I
can only send that as an attachment.
I want the mail recipients to do as little work as possible to see this
attachment..... Otherwise they will just delete it if it's not in the body of
the email.....
Can you offer me any advice on this? I would really appreciate it.
I'm not sure I will know how to get back to this post..... my email address
is reskate@comcast.net if it's possible to write to me directly too?
Thank you in advance for your anticipated aid!!!

Sending your Publisher document as the body of an email is a poor practice.
If the recipient has his/her email set for plaint text (and a lot of people
do), then they won't see all of your layout efforts at all. I recommend
sending it as a .pdf attachment.
