Next question: How to display PDFs inline?snip
Well, off hand, I would say you would need to use the object tag*
instead of the img tag and be using an email client that works with
object tags; however, you should expect that most email clients will
not work. You may also need to use a flash viewer or something. Just
stop and think how many web sites have embed PDFs and you will
understand your problem.

Another thought: do you know what the PDF contains? Is it just a TIFF
or other image format wrapped up in PDF? If so, you can probably just
convert the PDF into a JPG or GIF and use the IMG. Of course, if
push comes to shove you could always just take a screenshot while view
the PDF at %100 and convert that file to a GIF or JPG.
Are you trying to do this programatically for a number of PDFs, or is
this the only one (or one of a static set)?
