Render Attachments in PDF files

[Former Community Member]

Hi,



We have a user action in our process for which we want to allow users to add attachments to the form.



We are then rendering the form as a PDF and e-mailing the form to a client. however we also want to e-mail any attachments that the user has added to the form.



My question is, how can we get the attachments to render as attachments within the PDF document?



Thanks



James

Hi James

Strictly speaking, you can't. The Workflow system has its own mechanism for handling attachments - they are attached via Form Manager's custom "attachment" user interface, rather than being attached "inside" the PDF.

You could get at these attachments, and attach them to your outbound email as regular attachments, rather than embedded within the PDF.

If you have a strong requirement to embed the attachments inside the PDF, there may be something we could do. Please email info-at-avoka.com if you want to discuss further.

We too require to render the attachmens(6 numbers)in the pdf and submit in the workflow. Please do let us know about future course of action.
