+ | THE ATTACHFILE PACKAGE |
+ | Scott Pakin, scott+af@pakin.org |
+ +---------------------------------+
+
+Description
+-----------
+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 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.
+

+
+Building attachfile
+and its documentation
+---------------------
+tex attachfile.ins <== Produces attachfile.sty (the package proper)
+pdflatex attachfile.dtx <== Produces attachfile.pdf (documentation)
+makeindex -s gind.ist attachfile <== Produces attachfile.ind (index)
+makeindex -s gglo.ist attachfile.glo -o attachfile.gls <== (change log)
+pdflatex attachfile.dtx <== Merges index + change log into the documentation
+pdflatex attachfile.dtx <== Produces final version of attachfile.pdf
+
+Note that attachfile comes with pre-built documentation (PDF format,
+U.S. letter-sized paper, 23 pages), so you really need to perform only
+the first step above unless you're unhappy with the documentation as
+provided.
