Hi,
Could anyone give me details regarding any JCL utility to create a pdf and email that as an attachment from mainframe?

I tried the program ZIP390 but seems its not part of my installation.

thanks,

JOZEF

To create these file formats requires specific software. If it is not available at your site then you need to ask your systems administrators (Sysprogs) if there is any software available to create these formats.

Rather a site specific question.

ZIP390 is supplied by a vendor named Data 21 and must be purchased from them. SAS can also create PDF files but again is not free. If your site does not have any tools specifically to create PDF files on the mainframe, you may have to transfer the file to a server and create a PDF once the file is on the server. This is very site specific so you need to contact your site support group for assistance.
