In MSCRM 2016 Update 1 Online- When sending a document to PDF, the headers and footers are not displaying. When I send it to Word first, then save as a PDF, headers and footers do display.

You cam "chain" more than one attachment, to an Email, by un-selecting the option "Send Email" option in the Workflow, and enable it, in the last task of the Workflow.
