Default Attached .pdf end up as embedded garbage in email body

Well I made some calls to those that have been reporting this problem.
There is a consistancy in those that receive it all garbled up. I am
listing some of the specific cases these cases involve 3 different
reports that are generate programmically. I will call them A Report, B
Report, and C Report

1) In this case it is one of our dealer rep's, what the challenge is
with his case is that he received about 20 program generated emails a
day, all but one comes through fine, and the one that is received
incorrectly is the same one every day A Report.
2) In this case there are two people in the same office recieving the
same email, as a matter of fact it is not seperate emails to both but
one email with multiple addresses. They are both popping from the same
mail server and both using Outlook, and one's email comes in fine and
the other's is always incorrect. This happend on all sent reports A
Report, B Report and C Report.
3) In the next case we have 2 dealers that only C Report is arriving
incorrect.
4) Last case when this person checks the email from a web base webmail
program the email is fine and the attachement is able to be downloaded
and opened normally in Adobe Acrobat Reader. But when the same email is
pulled down into Outlook it appears incorrect.

It is consistantly happening to the same people always with the same
reports from what has been reported to me those selected reports to the
same people are coming in malformed 100% of the time. The only thing
they all have in common is that they are all using Microsoft Outlook to
pull down their emails. Another bit of information is that this
problem just seemed to start occuring about a month ago, prior to that
there was no reports of this issue. As far as a percentage goes there
are somedays we send out 500-600 emails with a reported receive error
of only the 5 I have discussed above.

Anymore help or insight into this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
