PDF provides a convenient package for your document. A typical PDF contains fonts, images, page streams, annotations, and metadata. It turns out that you can pack anything into a PDF file, even the source document used to create the PDF! These attachments enjoy the benefits of PDF features such as compression, encryption, and digital signatures. Attachments also enable you to provide your readers with document data, such as tables, in a native file format that they can easily use. People often ask]. Attach your document data as HTML or Excel files and give your readers exactly what they need.
Page Attachments Versus Document Attachments
You can attach a file to a particular PDF page, where it is visible as an icon. Or, you can attach a file to the PDF document so that it keeps a lower profile. After encrypting your PDF, document attachments can't be unpacked without the ModifyAnnotations permission. Page attachments, on the other hand, can be unpacked at any time, regardless of the security permissions you imposed. Of course, the PDF must be opened first, which could require a user password.
Attach Files to a PDF with Acrobat
Attach your file to a PDF page using the Attach File commenting tool. In Acrobat 6, access this tool using the Advanced Commenting toolbar or from the Tools>Advanced> Commenting Attach menu. In Acrobat 5, access this tool using the Commenting toolbar. The Attach File tool button hides under the Note tool button; click the little down arrow to discover it.
Activate the Attach File tool and the cursor becomes a push pin. Click the page where you want the attachment's icon to appear and a file selector dialog opens. Select the file to attach. A properties dialog will open, where you can customize the appearance of your attachment's icon.
As we noted, document attachments are different from page attachments. In Acrobat 6, access document attachments by selecting Document>File Attachments . . . . Select Document>File Attachments and click Import . . . to add an attachment. In Acrobat 5, select File Document Properties>Embedded Data Objects . . . . Click Import . . . to add an attachment.

Hi,
PDF attachments can be added to existing PDF files for example using pdftk. Adobe reader provides support for attachments. It has greater credibility in an email. Thanks a lot.
