i am trying to write a script to send mail and a pdf as attachment using app script but i keep getting this error
function sendEmails() {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var startRow = 2; // First row of data to process
var numRows = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange('I1').getValue(); // getting number of rows by fetching value from a count function in sheet
var dataRange = sheet.getRange(startRow, 1, numRows, 2);
// Fetch values for each row in the Range.
var data = dataRange.getValues();
for (var i in data) {
var row = data[i];
var emailAddress = row[0]; // First column
var link = row[1];// Fetching ID by using mid fuction in sheet
var file = DriveApp.getFileById(link);
var subject = 'Sending emails from a Spreadsheet';
var htmlBody = DriveApp.getFileById("14KhceDa2lg7ojnwzFwpfiJCCx-xldPPj")
MailApp.sendEmail(emailAddress, subject, {htmlBody: htmlBody}, {attachments: [file[0].getAs(MimeType.PDF)]})
}

You get only file object using DriveApp.getFileById so use file.getAs() directly as shown in below code
function sendEmails() {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var startRow = 2; // First row of data to process
var numRows = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange('I1').getValue(); // getting number of rows by fetching value from a count function in sheet
var dataRange = sheet.getRange(startRow, 1, numRows, 2);
// Fetch values for each row in the Range.
var data = dataRange.getValues();
for (var i in data) {
var row = data[i];
var emailAddress = row[0]; // First column
var link = row[1];// Fetching ID by using mid fuction in sheet
var file = DriveApp.getFileById(link);
var subject = 'Sending emails from a Spreadsheet';
var htmlBody = DriveApp.getFileById("14KhceDa2lg7ojnwzFwpfiJCCx-xldPPj")
MailApp.sendEmail(emailAddress, subject, {htmlBody: htmlBody}, {attachments: [file.getAs(MimeType.PDF)]})
}
}Try this:
MailApp.sendEmail(emailAddress,subject,'',{htmlBody: htmlBody,attachments: [file.getAs(MimeType.PDF)]})
