            Unable to send pdf attachment with more than 2 photos using sendgrid
            Asked 2022-Mar-25 at 23:54

            I have one weird problem. I created API, that allow you to: Upload photos to server, then save data to database, generate pdf with these datas and photos and then send email with that pdf attachment. It was working well for me, while I was uploading/sending only two photos. I was able to open that generated pdf file using finder, also I was able to open it from received email.
            Then I uploaded more files and after sending API request, I received email with that pdf file but I was not able to open it. It shows error that finder was not able to open that file. When I checked manually inside server folder, it was working well.

            So there must be problem while sending that email. 0 to 2 photos works well, more than 2 is not working. But when I open that pdf file on server, it is working well even with 8 photos.

            Sending picture of that pdf attachment.

            Answered 2022-Mar-21 at 12:05

            First you have to understand why you see what you see, and this explains that to some extent:

            Since the origin of the PDF is bottom left, when you add something, it will be added to the bottom of the page which is why your images are at the bottom.

            What you probably need to do to fix this is as follows:

            1. Your graphics context should be the size of the PDF page, not the image
            2. You center your image within the graphics context
            3. Add this image to your pdf page

            By definition simple PDF structure is not tabular there is one cell (the page) and that one column can be subdivide into two or more rows with null spaces between the text sub columns.

            That is why tables are difficult to sub[ex]tract

            So adding coloured rows in one area is fairly simple to make like a table, thus to make vertical sub dividers is more difficult, However that feature was added in January 2022 https://github.com/natancabral/pdfkit-table/files/7865078/document-5.pdf

            Twilio SendGrid developer evangelist here.

            As far as I can tell from the documentation, PDFKit is a synchronous library. The only thing that is asynchronous is writing the PDF to disk. So your code should not need to await anything within the createTicketPDF function. You do need to listen for the stream to finish though, so you could return a promise that resolves when the stream is finished, like this:

            This image has 13 columns, I don't want that. I want to keep 5 columns but my major concern is the size of the td in my HTML files. It is too small in width and that is why, the text is also very stacked up in each td. But if you look at the other image, text is much more visible and boxes are much more bigger width wise. Moreover, it doesn't suffer from height problems either (the height of the box is in such a way that it covers the whole of the PDF Page and all the tds don't look like stretched down)

            I have tried to play around the height and width of my td in the HTML File, but unfortunately, nothing really seemed to work for me.

            What I've done here is remove the borders from the table and collapsed the space for them.

            I've then used more semantic elements for both table headings and your actual content with semantic class names. This included adding a new element for the elements you want at the bottom of the cell. Finally, the teacher and codes are floated left and right respectively.
