If you're not on a fossil version of OpenVMS, consider using MIME and 
an attachment.

See 7.15 here: https://docs.vmssoftware.com/docs/vsi-openvms-user-s-manual.pdf

In general...

MIME>NEW mimemessage.txt
edit the text of your message
MIME>ADD whatever.txt {/ENCODE=BASE64}
MIME>CLOSE

Here's an old txt2pdf, whether this works twenty years on?
