Turning a PDF into an email

Hello! Is there a way to upload a PDF into an email template, meaning the full PDF is the body of the email (plus header and footer snippets). Use case is whitelabeled sales sheets from vendors that we would like to send to our clients.

This is not possible.

PDF is a binary format. It can't simply become the HTML or Text body of an email (nor can it be attached, since Marketo doesn't do attachments).

You'd have to run the PDF through a separate HTML conversion process... which would, no doubt, have errors. They're just very different concepts.

Hi Shelley,

You cannot upload PDF for email. However, if you just want to show the PDF along with header and footer you can use image as an entire body instead of PDF(Take screen shot of PDF and add in email body).
