Hi,

My approach would be the following :-

 

1. Make the VF email template like this :-

 

<messaging:emailTemplate subject="Test" recipientType="Contact" relatedToType="Contact">
<messaging:plainTextEmailBody >

Hi, Please see the attached PDF!

<messaging:attachment renderAs="PDF" filename="PDFattachment.pdf">
<!-- Contact Details -->
Contact name :- {!relatedTo.name}
Contact Address :- {!relatedTo.MailingAddress}


</messaging:attachment>
</messaging:emailTemplate>

 

2. Send email using massemail or singleemail message. Use the above template to prepare the email.

 

 
vishal@forcevishal@force

You can also use workflow rule here.

 

1. Create a new email template which has the needed contact details, add an attachment to it.

2. Create a workflow rule which sends an email to Contact.Email on Contact using the new template you created.
