I have this strange thing with attaching a pdf to an email if the pdf is created in memory.

Here's code to reproduce it:

// Create the pdf_doc object
local(pdf = pdf_doc( -size = 'A4', -nocompress))

// Prepare a pdf template to insert
local(pdf_template = pdf_read('/test.pdf'))

// Insert the background pdf page.
#pdf -> insertpage(#pdf_template, 1)

// Place text
local(text = pdf_text( 'This text will show.'))

#pdf -> add( #text,
-height = 70,
-width = 200,
-left = 100,
-top = 100,
-leading = 30)

// Close the pdf_doc
#pdf -> close

email_send(-to = 'jolle@amtac.net',
-from = 'xxx@yyy',
-subject = 'Testing pdf',
-host = $zxy,
-port = $vcx,
-username = $wert,
-password = $trew,
-body = 'Some relevant body text',
-attachments = array('demo2.pdf' = bytes(#pdf)))

pdf_serve(-content = #pdf, -file = 'demo1.pdf', -inline)


The served pdf will contain the full pdf including the inserted file. The emailed one will only contain the text "This text will show."

This confuses me...
