David,
When sending an HTML message with R:Mail, it is advised to attach the
PDF document, as a PDF cannot be "displayed" when embedded into an HTML email.
Not all file types can be embedded. The results depend on the file
type. It is advised that only images be embedded (gif/png/jpg). Other
file types should be normal attachments.
When testing an example, the PDF arrived when sent, and in the email
client program folders, the PDF document arrived in the "Embedded"
subfolder, not the "Attachment" subfolder. So it appears to arrive
correctly, but the PDF is not "displayed" rightfully so.
If the content of the attached PDF is from an R:BASE report, it is
suggested to use the "PRINT ... OPTION HTML" format, and in R:Mail,
use the LOAD_MESSAGE_BODY_FROM_FILE parameter to populate the message
body from the HTML output.
Hope it helps!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak

followed the example given in the R:Mail documentation and have
successfully embedded a gif, but I can't figure out what changes
need to be made to embed a pdf. The pdf sends as an attachment, but
does not embed and open in the message body properly. It shows an
icon that suggests a broken link (looks like a torn picture) in the
message body.
Any help is appreciated.
