Attaching Files to an Email in Outlook 2013
You will need to know the location of the file that you want to attach to your email in order to perform the steps outlined below. Additionally, keep in mind that many email providers have limitations on the size of files that you can attach to your email messages.

Step 3: Click the Attach File button in the Include section of the ribbon at the top of the window.
Step 4: Browse to the file that you want to attach to the email, click it once to select it, then click the Insert button at the bottom of the window.
Step 5: Enter the address of the recipient into the To field, enter the message subject into the Subject field, then enter your email message into the body of the email. Note that the attachment is displayed in an Attached field. Click the Send button when everything is finished and ready to go.
