If you use GnuCash with a database, and have the coding skills, you could generate whatever invoice you want, and convert and email it. This would be straightforward in most cases, though not trivial. Access to the database is not confined to GnuCash itself. Just the same, you'd have to do it outside of GnuCash.

If by 'directly' you mean from 'within GnuCash', no, you can't.

Since the customer's e-mail address can appear on the invoice in their info block, you might be able to set up a script, possibly combined with a folder 'watcher' that can automate e-mailing a resulting PDF from printing the invoice to that e-mail address and crafting a subject line perhaps with the invoice number taken from the document.

You can of course do the same thing with HTML, via running the invoice report, then use the Export button rather than print-to-file.

How much of this you want to automate to reduce clicks is up to you.

Can I directly email PDF, or was Adrien correct?
