CTAN update: attachfile
by CTAN Announcements 13 Nov '15

13 Nov '15

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the attachfile package. Version number: 1.8 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Attach arbitrary files to a PDF document Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Starting with PDF 1.3 (Adobe Acrobat 4.0), PDF files can contain file attachments -- arbitrary files that a reader can extract, just like attachments to an e-mail message. The attachfile package brings this functionality to pdfLaTeX and LuaLaTeX and provides some additional features not available in Acrobat, such as the ability to use arbitrary LaTeX code for the file icon -- including things like includegraphics, tabular, and math. Settings can be made either globally or on a per-attachment basis. attachfile makes it easy to attach files and customize their appearance in the enclosing document. Version 1.8 of attachfile strips the path name while embedding a file. Mikkel Futtrup reports that path names tend to confuse PDF readers on tablets and smartphones. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/attachfile More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/attachfile We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
