Hi, Steve...and everyone. I have no issues with the process of placing the attachment somewhere (in our case, Share Point) and linking to it with a URL...I do hundreds of these to files on SP and my issue isn't wanting to click an icon rather than a link.
In this case, I didn't want to do a link of any type because where these types of files are kept is in a secure location and people won't get in, though these particular files are not restricted access due to governance approval. I wanted them carried along in and with the PDF to not worry about access permissions.
