If the job file is the target file to which the attachments must be added, it should be a PDF/A-3
file. Note, however, that the task doesn't verify that the input file is PDF/A-3 compliant.
Processing
The task reads each of the files that are listed as attachments and adds it to the target PDF with
the name that was specified for that attachment.
The target file can be either the job file or an external PDF/A-3 file.
The job file can also be used as one of the attachments.
Output
This task outputs the target PDF/A-3 file, with the attachments added to it, as the job file.
Properties
General Tab
l
Target PDF/A-3: Specify the file to which the attachments and (optional) metadata must
be added.
l
Job file: When this option is checked the attachments are added to the current job
file. The job file should be PDF/A-3 compliant.
l
External file: Adds the attachments to an external file. Use the Browse button to
select a PDF/A-3 compliant file.
Note that the task doesn't verify that the target file is PDF/A-3 compliant. If it is a
PDF file that is non-PDF/A-3 compliant, the task will add the attachments to it, but it
will not convert the file into a PDF/A-3 compliant file.
l
Attachments: Specify which files should be attached to the target file. Use the buttons at
the bottom to add and delete attachments and to change their order.
Note
All of the Attachments properties can be variable (see "Variable task properties" on
page607). You can right-click on a field to open the contextual menu and select
variables, data, and lookup functions. The property will be dynamically determined
