Sending 'open' pdf's?

I need to get lots of files printed at local shop. How do I send the open pdf on email? I'm already paying around 10p per sheet and it costs 15p to open a pdf at shop and I have about 30+ files to print and will be slower
These are past exam papers. Some sent directly the printer at shop but latest ones sending as pdf links
Any ideas please??

have you tried re-saving the PDF files? by that I mean opening them up in Acrobat, or whatever, then select file, print and choose to option to save the file as a PDF, thus creating a new version?

Thank you
I'll have a go at opening the PDF's on laptop and saving opened file then emailing to shop
I don't think I can do it on my phone

I really can't understand this
Gone back to papers that send open to the printer at shop the other day and they are now sending as closed PDF's which would need opening :-/
I don't think I've changed any settings on phone
I've tried saving open on on desktop but still coming thru as closed pdf

Ah, it could well be that the PDFs have been created with restricted printing set, which is to prevent you printing off copies. I think if you have Acrobat Pro you can over-ride this? Ask the shop how they are doing it.
