I’m not sure if you are trolling, but I’m pretty sure just attaching a file to an email is often more efficient. Not to speak of legibility or maybe the intended use for said documents. Sadly I don’t think you are trolling.

Also: a computer (where the documents were) has the required hardware and software to send the documents as is. Your phone is the special and external hardware in this case, not the computer (also probably more expensive than the computer). Your phone requires signups and logins as much or even more than computers. I don’t know what paid subscription you would need to share these documents. Plenty of free methods. I don’t know why you are talking about malware? Do you think the documents might mutate into malware while traveling the internet? I think the risk exists with pictures too, be careful out there!

Using email, passing the data through 2 third party services known for scanning attachments for advertising purposes is not more efficient and is a security concern. It’s just that we have forgotten that, and it didn’t used to be.

All major phone OS now have the ability to select and copy text out of images.

If you think about it she really did choose the best method to transfer a text document safely, securely, efficiently.
