-attachment
(Merge only) (As of 3.1.001.25)
Attach a file to the generated PDF output.
Syntax
-attachment filename [; description]
The textual description is optional. If present, it will be displayed in pdf viewers such as Acrobat.
Description
For every document in the job PDF attachments list is reinitialized from -attachment options if any is set. Then this PDF attachments list is shared through all output configurations (drivers) defined.
Multiple -attachment commands may be used to attach several files. Example:
-attachment "C:/DocOrigin/User/Forms/myfile.txt;This is a sample description"
-attachment "$$F/anotherfile.txt;This is another file."
Scripting
(Merge only) (Added in 3.1.002.01)
There are such script functions to manage PDF attachments from script:
_printer.addPDFAttachment(name [, description]) - add an attachment to PDF attachments list for current document
- _printer.clearPDFAttachments() - clear the list of PDF attachments for current document
- _printer.resetPDFAttachments() - init PDF attachments list from command line -attachment options for current document
Note that some of these functions make more sense on start next print driver event.
