That would depend entirely on the recipient's mail client.

The other person is using Microsoft outlook as well.

I know you can open each contact attachment individually, but I emailed
about 50 contact cards. Is there a way to add them to the other persons
contacts without opening and saving each one individually?

That depends on what they actually are. If they are .vcf files, then you need to open and save each one. If they are embedded full Outlook contacts, drag and drop each into your Contacts folder.

I am not sure what type of contacts they are. I created contacts just by
clicking on new contact. Does this mean each one has to be saved?

How you create the contact is totally unrelated to how they might be sent by email. You can determine whether they're .vcf or .msg files by using the Save Attachments command.

Could you let me know how I should email them to the person who needs to save
them in their computer? Thanks

You need to choose, using the information you have already been given:

1) If you forward them as Outlook items, the user can drag and drop each one into the contacts folder.

2) If you send them as vCard .vcf files, the user will need to open each one and choose Save and Close.
