Using the Attach File As Comment tool

Use the Attach File As Comment tool in the Commenting toolbar to embed a file at a
selected location in an Adobe PDF document, so that the reader can open it for viewing.
By adding attachments as a comment, you can reference longer documents that can't
easily be pasted into a pop-up window or text box. If you move the PDF document to a
new location, the embedded file automatically goes with it.

Important: Be sure to use the Attach A File As A Comment tool in the Commenting
toolbar when attaching files in a document review. Document-level file attachments that
you attach using the paper clip icon from the File toolbar aren't tracked with other
comments and may cause your attached comments to be lost.

To add a file attachment as a comment:

1. In the Commenting toolbar, choose Attach File As Comment Tool

from the Attach

File As Comment menu

.

2. Click in the PDF document where you want to place the attachment.
3. Select the file that you want to attach, and then click Select.
4. In the Properties dialog box, select the settings for the file icon that appears in the PDF

document. (See

Changing the appearance of comments

.) Then click Close.

If the attached file is a PDF document, you can add comments to it that point out

the items of interest.

To delete the attached file:

Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) the Attach File icon, and choose Delete.
