In case it complains about missing curl, you can get it by "apt-get install php5-curl". On non-Debian systems you can use the same package name with "yum" or "aptitude".

Use this to send pdf
$result = $postmark->to("send-to-email")
->subject("Test Mail")
->plain_message("This is a plain text message.")
->attachment('sample.pdf', base64_encode(file_get_contents('sample.pdf')), 'application/pdf')
->send();

I'm having the same issues as hgus. It's like $result is never === true. Is there some other setting I'm missing? I'm running php 5.4.4

The API is sound, you need to set up a signature in Postmark the from address that you're using in the API will need to be the same as that signature. That should get it working.
