Using Attachments in Earlier Versions of Acrobat
If a user working with Acrobat versions 5 or 6 opens a PDF document containing attachments, an
information dialog box describing the attachments displays before the file opens. In Acrobat 5 or 6, choose
Document > File Attachments to open the File Attachments dialog box which lists the attachments
according to their locations. Document file attachments are listed first followed by those attached as file
comments listed by page number.
