Question

I am creating pdf using FPDF . Pdf is generating perfectly and also pdf is available with email. But i want to send body message also. I have tried with body message. Example Fine text message `This is text message from shohag` But only pdf attachment is available and body is empty.

You can use PHPMailer with FPDF . It works properly without any hassle. You need to change parameter for `$pdf->Output` . Download and copy `class.phpmailer.php` and `PHPMailerAutoload.php` to your work folder. Attach `class.phpmailer.php` below or above `require('html2pdf.php');` . I have done this before so this will work. According to your code this should work.

```
function send_pdf_to_user(){
    if($_REQUEST['action'] == 'pdf_invoice' ){
        require('html2pdf.php');
        require_once('class.phpmailer.php');
        $pdf=new PDF_HTML();
        $pdf->SetFont('Arial','',11);
        $pdf->AddPage();

$text = get_html_message($_REQUEST['eventid'], $_REQUEST['userid']);
        if(ini_get('magic_quotes_gpc')=='1')
        $text=stripslashes($text);
        $pdf->WriteHTML($text);

$mail = new PHPMailer(); // defaults to using php "mail()"
        $body = "This is test mail by monirul";
       
        $mail->AddReplyTo("webmaster@test.ch","Test Lernt");
        $mail->SetFrom('webmaster@test.ch', 'Test Lernt');
       
        $address = "monirulmask@gmail.com";
        $mail->AddAddress($address, "Abdul Kuddos");       
        $mail->Subject    = "Test Invoice";       
        $mail->AltBody    = "To view the message, please use an HTML compatible email viewer!"; // optional, comment out and test
       
        $mail->MsgHTML($body);
        //documentation for Output method here: http://www.fpdf.org/en/doc/output.htm       
        $pdf->Output("Test Invoice.pdf","F");
        $path = "Walter Lernt Invoice.pdf";
         
        $mail->AddAttachment($path, '', $encoding = 'base64', $type = 'application/pdf');
        global $message;
        if(!$mail->Send()) {
          $message =  "Invoice could not be send. Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
        } else {
          $message = "Invoice sent!";
        }
       
    }
}
