How to Customize the PDF Email

The PDF email is plain text with the PDF attached. You can change both lines.

Go to Content to PDF → Configuration → Reader & Leads and scroll to PDF Email.

The Reader & Leads tab, with PDF Email at the bottom

The default is Your PDF: {title}. It takes:

  • {title}: The post title.
  • {site}: Your site name.
  • {name}: The name the reader typed. Empty if they left it blank.
  • {url}: The post’s address.

The message is plain text and takes the same placeholders, plus {date}, today’s date. The default:

Hi {name},
Your copy of "{title}" is attached.
Read it online: {url}
{site}

A reader who leaves the name blank reads “Hi ,”. If many skip it, start the message without the name.

Click Save Changes, open a post, press Download PDF, then the envelope, and send the PDF to yourself.

Leave either field empty to go back to the default text.
