Using the file attachment tool
The file attachment tool allows you to embed a file at a selected location in a PDF
document, so the reader can open it for viewing. Rather than referencing the file, as you
would with a link, the file becomes part of the PDF document. Thus if you move the PDF
document to a new location, the embedded file comment automatically goes with it.
Note:
You can attach any file type as a file attachment. However, your user will not be able
to open the file unless they have the authoring application installed on their system.
When attached files are launched from within a PDF document, temporary files are
created in a TEMP directory. The location of this directory varies in Windows and Mac OS.
See the user documentation for your system for more information.
To attach a file:
1
Select the file attachment tool
.
2
Select the location where you want to place the file attachment.
3
Select the file to embed from the Select File To Attach dialog box. You can also change
the filename. Click Select.
4
In the Comment Properties dialog box, set the desired options:
•
Select an icon to represent the type of file that is embedded. You can choose from
Attachment, Graph, Tag, and Paperclip.
•
Select a color for the comment icon. To specify a custom color, see
“Setting the custom
color option” on page 138
.
•
Add a description of the file.
•
Specify an author name if you wish to replace the default.
•
Click OK.
