Hi, I''ve been trying to set up to send already generated PDF''s via the ActionMailer class however it dosn''t seem to send the full file. So when I try to load the file after being sent it via email it dosn''t because it is corrupt. When I choose to send HTML instead it sends fine but it dosn''t work with Word Documents either Do I need to do anything special for other file types? Thanks -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I managed to send a PDF attachment with a text E-mail message for a project that has since been put on hold (so I haven''t run the code in two months, and don''t recall just how well it worked). This is a method from my ActionMailer-derived class def pdf_invoice mail_params, pdf recipients mail_params[ :to ] cc mail_params[ :cc ] from mail_params[ :user_email ] subject mail_params[ :subject ] part :content_type => "text/plain", :body => render_message( ''pdf_invoice.text.plain'', :note => mail_params[ :note ] ) attachment :content_type => "application/pdf", :filename => mail_params[ :base_filename ].to_s + ''.pdf'', :body => pdf end -- James Britt Judge a man by his questions, rather than his answers. - Voltaire
Hi James thanks for the email, unfortunatly its not suitable for what I need. For each item in my database has a PDF file already created and I want to be able to automatically send the PDF attachment by a single click. Thanks James Britt wrote:> Ste Hart wrote: >> no-one?
