I’m not sure which Connect plug-ins should be used to simply create a PDF and send it as an email attachment.
Is using a Create Print Content with a Create Output action configured as PDF output valid for this and would it work with the traditional PDF Splitter and Send Email output task in the automation workflow?
If you have in the same template Print context and email context then you can attach the print context as PDf document. So, in “Email Info” of the “Create Email Content”, check the option “Print Context as PDF document” in attachments.
