When you say the PDF file is unreadable, exactly what error message do you get?

I suspect it may be that you do not have a PDF reader program on your Windows PC.

So in glossary:acrobat_reader|> Acrobat Reader click the Download page at Adobe link.
On the Adobe Acrobat Reader DC page, start with the steps on the left:
  • Step 1 select your operating system such as Windows 10 or Windows 8
  • Step 2 select your language such as English (UK)
  • Step 3 select a version - probably such as Reader DC 2015...
  • Untick Optional offer of McAfee in centre (important)
  • Click Download now button on right and Save File (readerdc_uk_a_install.exe) to your Downloads folder or Desktop

Finally, if necessary in Windows/File Explorer navigate to Downloads folder, then double-click the file just downloaded to install it.
That should let you open the PDF file on your PC to view the Diagram Chart.

You can send the PDF file as an attachment to your Email in much the same way you probably send photo attachments.

Barb, you did not answer my question:
... exactly what error message do you get?
Without knowing that message, my instructions are only a guess, and my not solve your problem
