Hi @AkashL722774083 

This code might help you 

(function() {
var gr = new GlideRecord('sc_req_item');
gr.addQuery('cat_item', '<catalog_id>'); // Replace with your Catalog Item sys_id
gr.query();
while (gr.next()) {
createPDF(gr); // pass each RITM
}

function createPDF(ritmGr) {
var html = "<h2>Catalog Request Details</h2>";
html += "<p><b>Requested For:</b> " + ritmGr.request.requested_for.getDisplayValue() + "</p>";
html += "<p><b>Catalog Item:</b> " + ritmGr.cat_item.getDisplayValue() + "</p>";
html += "<hr/>";

// Collect Variables
var catGr = new GlideRecord('sc_item_option_mtom');
catGr.addQuery('request_item', ritmGr.sys_id);
catGr.query();
while (catGr.next()) {
var optionGr = new GlideRecord('sc_item_option');
if (optionGr.get(catGr.sc_item_option.toString())) {
var label = optionGr.item_option_new.getDisplayValue(); // variable label
var value = optionGr.value; // submitted value
html += "<p><b>" + label + ":</b> " + value + "</p>";
}
}

// Generate PDF and attach to RITM
var pdfAPI = new sn_pdfgeneratorutils.PDFGenerationAPI();
var attachmentId = pdfAPI.convertToPDFWithAttachmentName(
html,
ritmGr,
"Catalog_Request_" + ritmGr.number + ".pdf"
);

gs.info("PDF generated and attached: " + attachmentId);
}
})();

The PDF will be save in the RITM generate
