Hi,
get the content of the document via contentService & prepare a multipart mail.
Mails in Activiti-WFs within Alfresco are triggered by org.alfresco.repo.workflow.activiti.tasklistener.TaskCreateListener & send via MailAction (org.alfresco.repo.action.executer.MailActionExecuter).

The MailActionExecuter doesn't support attachments, so you'll need to add your own code.
