Adding attachments to a PDF is possible under two scenarios:

1) The originating user adds the attachment using Acrobat (not Adobe Reader). Subsequent consumers of the PDF can access the attachment with Acrobat or Reader.

2) If users do not have Acrobat and you are planning on supporting attachments for Reader clients, you must use LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES2 to add a right to a PDF to enable attachments. Any user with Adobe Reader can then add attachments.

Scripting for attachments is not 'native' to Designer and XFA-based forms. To utilize Acrobat 'Doc' object properties you can do the following:

// form1.page1.btn::click - (JavaScript, client)

var myDoc = event.target;

myDoc.importDataObject("pdfAttachment");

See page 16 of http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/acrobat/sdk/AcroJS_DesignerJS.pdf.

Ok Steve

And do you know, how could I get the document path?

I´m trying with...

myDoc = event.target;

myDoc.importDataObject("pdfAttachment");

xfa.form.form1.Page1.Contenedor.Documentos.rawValue

= myDoc.path;

I need the path of my attach document pdf, and "myDoc.path" show me the file´s path wrong.

Thank´s
