I have been using Apple Mac computers since 1987
When I retired in 2005, part of my retirement package from the university was my office Apple Mac computer. That was running OS 10.4.11 - and I was perfectly happy with that.
Unfortunately, the PSU cremated the Motherboard so I had to replace it.
I bought a second-hand Mac Pro 3.1 which has OS 10.6.8 installed.
I needed OS 10.6.8 because that would allow me to run my existing software - I could NOT afford to replace any software nor face the precipitous learning curve discovering how to use it.
I am VERY happy with the equipment that I have now on my desk.
The problems are with the iPhone - and that's mostly because there is no detailed printed manual for it.
With best wishes and thanks

Yeap, that app will do it. The one purchased from DataViz. If it works in his iOS? I am surprised he does not have more issues with that old an MacOS.

MC - I used to use an app and windows program called Doc's to Go. (In fact I still have it on my phone and checked to be sure it would do what you want). It is a purchase though. With it you can directly sync between the Mac and computer without using the cloud. I have included this link to a support FAQ and the products page. It is very simple to use. And worked for me for years since Palm and Treo days. Boy am I dating myself.

Thank you for taking the time to respond in a helpful way.
I have used the Action icon to save the file in FILES but it appears to be saved in The Cloud but NOT locally.
I do NOT understand why I can't save the file on my iPhone.
In general, I do NOT want any of my files on The Cloud. I have no doubt that you will tell me it's impossible but if the Cloud fails, then my files will be lost.
And please do NOT tell me that it's impossible for the Cloud to fail. I know of many instances when things that are deemed impossible have happened.
But the problem of saving the file is now solved, Thank you all

MC you are not senile haha. It may be technique. First off - are you running the current version of iOS. It may be if you have an older version my steps won't work. I am on 12.4. If you are current, after you open the attachment,are you first hitting the icon with the box and arrow and selecting "print"? When you get to the print screen ( where the printer is shown and the number of copies wanted and options are shown) put your fingers on the document itself and then zoom out. The document will expand and the printer options will disappear but you can still see the action button in the upper right hand corner. Hit the icon again and all your file storing options will be shown..
The other technique which works on my iPhone X is the hard press on the document. If you have a phone that has the hard press option try that on the document itself after you have selected the print option. Press the screen hard and it should expand obscuring the print options but leaving the action icon.
I hope you can accomplish this pdf conversion. I use it all the time to save things - emails, attachments, web pages esp when reader view is available.Sue

You can do the same for an attachment. Open the attachment hit the action button. Hit print then zoom with your fingers. It converts to a PDF that can be stored in any storage location you have and use on your phone.. If you want to put it back on your Mac (I don't have one) use whatever file transfer is standard for a Mac iPhone transfer.
I have tried that.
When I moved my fingers apart nothing apparently happened
Perhaps I'm just senile
With best wishes and thanks again.
