Is there a way to attach a scanned document directly into an email without first saving the scanned document?

Is there a way to have the scanner as a document source in the 'attach' selection?

your questions relate entirely to scanner software and scanner drivers. What in that area can and can not be doe is decided by the scanner manufacturer.

A lot of scanners scan to mail using MAPI and Microsoft has discontinued that. I suggest you ask your scanner manufacturer what the capabilities of their device are.
