The following code attaches my pdf with success. However, my e-mail template is not being rendered in the e-mail. Any idea's why my template is ignored?
require 'pdf/writer' class NotifierRequest < ActionMailer::Base
def inforequest(name, email, notice_request, message) @subject = 'Notice' @body = {:name => name, :email => email, :notice_request => notice, :message => message} @recipients = email @from = "test@test.com" @sent_on = Time.now @content_type = "text/html"
attachment :content_type => "application/pdf", :filename => "notice.pdf", :transfer_encoding => "send_pdf" do |a| a.body = generate_pdf(notice_request) end end
def generate_pdf(notice_request)
pdf = PDF::Writer.new(:paper => "LETTER") pdf.select_font 'Times-Roman'
pdf.text "HELLO WORLD", :font_size => 17, :justification => :center pdf.move_pointer(5)
pdf.render :filename => 'NoticeRequest.pdf', :type => 'application/pdf'
end
end
