CTAN update: attachfile
Scott Pakin submitted an update to the attachfile package. Version number: 1.6 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Attach arbitrary files to a PDF document Announcement text: -- 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. Version 1.6 of attachfile embeds only a single copy of a file in the PDF document even if the file is attached multiple times. -- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/attachfile More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/attachfile We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Announcement text:
--
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.
Version 1.5 of attachfile is a minor update that enables macro
expansion in the attachment filename. For example, an author can
now use \jobname in the name of a file to attach.
