Never mind Worked it out. Ended up using ImageNew() and CFPDF to make sure the files were being read into the variables properly and attaching correctly.
Thanks for your help. Just a side not if anyone is listening from the powers that be, i did notice using this method creates a tmp file and the tmp file is attached to the email (see below) X-Mailer: ColdFusion 8 Application Server body: body: body: file: E:\ColdFusion8\runtime\servers\coldfusion\SERVER-INF\temp\wwwroot-tmp\cftmp2 8751.tmp file-type: image/jpeg file-disposition: attachment remove: true ...Notice the "remove" value? Why cant we add that in ourselves? But we can! Its not documented but why not?? <cfmailparam file="myFile.pdf" remove="true" /> This tells the CFMAIL process to remove the file after the email has been processed. There you go hey!
