Topic: Attachment Function Not Working Posted: 01 Feb 10 at 12:44PM |
I am using the pro version on trial. I am trying to use the function to add attachments, but when I save the file and open in Adobe Reader 9, no attachments. Is it cause its a trail version it does not work?

Hi,
It should work, even during the trial period (and actually, even after the trial period, except for the watermark on the document). Anyway, the way it works is:
Also note that you cannot add an attachment to a PDF which has been locked or encrypted. Cheers! |

Ok, I got it to work. When I read your procedure on creating/adding an attachemnt to a PDF, the only thing that I was not doing was "Also note that you cannot add an attachment to a PDF which has been locked or encrypted." When I create a PDF file with your software, it is adding security to the file. I had to select the newly created "secure" file and remove the security via the icon at the top. Once I did that, I was able to add an attachment. I was also able to see the process dialog adding the attachment.
My next question would be, can this security be turned off? |

Hi,
Cool. In regards to your question about encryption. In the right-hand column, under the "Security" header, make sure that both checkmarks (encrypt and locked) are not selected. However, it is OK to add attachments and encrypt/lock a file at the same time. I hope this help. |

I hate to bother you, but this has now become a challenge.
What file types are allowed to be attached? I started to add attachments of all types and did not find any issues in doing so, however, can only add one attachment at a time. If I try to add more than one, it does work and the pdf contains only the last successful attachment addition. I can add any type and as many as I want as long as I do it one at a time - it seems. Even from a brand new file, if I add more than one attachment, it fails to add them. The security issue from previous post has no baring on this issue. |

Hi,
It should be all of them. Like you, I can confirm the bug you reported in v2.2.8 I have also confirmed that it is working ok on the next version of PDF reDirect (currently beta v2.2.920), so I'll leave it at that for now. Look for beta v2.2.921 to be out in a few days. That version should be "almost there" in terms of both being feature complete and bug free. v2.2.920 is generally ok, but has a number of annoying minor error messages which have been fixed in v2.2.921. Look for an announcement in this forum soon. Cheers! Cheers! |
