// adds attachment in mail
$attachmentPart = $this->transportBuilder->addAttachment(
$this->reader->fileGetContents($data['pdfFile']),
$data['filename'],
'application/pdf'
); $message = $transport->getMessage();
$body = ZendMailMessage::fromString($message->getRawMessage())->getBody();
$body = Zend_Mime_Decode::decodeQuotedPrintable($body);
$html = ''; if ($body instanceof ZendMimeMessage) {
$html = $body->generateMessage(ZendMailHeaders::EOL);
} elseif ($body instanceof MagentoFrameworkMailMimeMessage) {
$html = (string) $body->getMessage();
} elseif ($body instanceof MagentoFrameworkMailEmailMessage) {
$html = (string) $body->getBodyText();
} else {
$html = (string) $body;
} $htmlPart = new ZendMimePart($html);
$htmlPart->setCharset('utf-8');
$htmlPart->setEncoding(Zend_Mime::ENCODING_QUOTEDPRINTABLE);
$htmlPart->setDisposition(Zend_Mime::DISPOSITION_INLINE);
$htmlPart->setType(Zend_Mime::TYPE_HTML);
$parts = [$htmlPart, $attachmentPart]; $bodyPart = new ZendMimeMessage();
$bodyPart->setParts($parts);
$message->setBody($bodyPart);
