Error while Opening PDF attachment from Mail

Question

Hi,
We two Output Types created ZNEU and ZAUF. Two Smartforms are created for the same Output Types. The Issue now is, When ZNEU triggers and send a mail the document is properly decoded and gets opened but for ZAUF it doesn't. It says File damaged.
This is the code we have used for sending mail.
CONSTANTS:
          co_pdf(3) TYPE c VALUE 'PDF',
          co_raw(3) TYPE c VALUE 'RAW'.
  DATA:
        it_objbin TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF solisti1,

ENDTRY.
This is in a Class which is been used in the print program for both the Output Types.
Can somebody throw light upon this.
Note: I tried using
but it is not working properly.
Thanks,
