Hello I actually figure it out by adding an "image" of the chat i want inside the pdf. You need these packages to accomplish that
flutter_email_sender: ^5.0.2
fl_chart: ^0.46.0
screenshot: ^1.2.3
pdf: ^3.3.0
path_provider: ^2.0.9
permission_handler: ^9.2.0
Some of them are needed for my example below. My example creates a pdf (saves it to the device) and opens the email to sent it to a user.
you are also going to need these permissions in your manifest
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
