In a professional email the document title (and perhaps the date when it was shared) is a sufficient reference.

I am assuming that the document was either shared by email, or given in a meeting, and that it is obvious that you are privy to this information.

As stated in [DOCUMENT TITLE], sent on [DATE], "importantstuff""

or

Quoting from [DOCUMENT TITLE], page [XX], "importantstuff". For clarity, I am referring to [DOCUMENT TITLE], sent on [DATE] [BY EMAIL/AT MEETING/ARRIVED BY POST].

If the creator of the document is essential, i.e. you HAVE to name someone, then you can add:

At present I cannot provide/I do not possess further details on the author of [DOCUMENT NAME]. Further information will be emailed as it becomes available.
