Email plain text content instead of link to document

Is there a way to send an email from the app with the plain text content from the HTML page instead of emailing a link to the app page?

I'm trying to create an app that will end up being a compilation of many documents for a sales team to take on the road. I want to be able to change the information as they go (so PDFs or DOCs would not seem to work), but then allow them to forward that exact info to clients from their phones. I seem to have 2 problems with just prefilling email fields. 1. The only way I see to do it is to create 2 screens per sales flier, one with the information for them to easily see and the other to be the email screen. This (with the other functions I would like to have) would put me over the screen limit for the app. 2. The email screen doesn't allow line breaks which makes my information too confusing. Any additional thoughts or am I out of luck?

One Buzztouch Custom HTML screen equals unlimited HTML "Screens". This (with the other functions I would like to have) would put me over the screen limit for the app. Using HTML there is practically "no screen limit". 2. The email screen doesn't allow line breaks which makes my information too confusing. Using HTML this is not an issue. Fred

I don't think I am skilled enough in HTML to do what you're talking about, is there a non-HTML way to achieve it?

Have doc on cloud / Dropbox. Have app open doc, edit doc, Dropbox keeps docs in sync. Email from Dropbox. Fred
