Bug Unable to attach pdf file in Mail

Hi, I downloaded a pdf file from internet and wanted to share it to my work mail but unfortunately can't attach it as I am unable to find it under Documents! The only files displayed are *.vcf files from Documents folder. I even moved the pdf file from Downloads to Documents, does not help. It is very crucial to be able to share files. Also, we need a proper file picker to be able to attach files as needed.
