Sending online bank statements as attachment

Options
I can save my online statements and view them on the screen and print.  Why is it when I send them as attachment, they appear differently?  Thanks

    No, I do not have the option to do that with some banks but I do if I have the option. It does seem I need to save them as PDF if I want to send them as attachment. Thanks.
  • If you cannot save them as a PDF, you might be better off printing them as a PDF?

    Be careful about sending bank statements via email. Email is still largely opportunistic encryption at best, which means that email servers can fall back to transmitting them in clear text making it possible for a third party to access your bank statement. If this is a concern to you, we can probably suggest better ways of sharing your bank statements?
