Description from the creator

👉UPDATED version of this video available: youtu.be/R2lFRHjQLBQ. Learn how to attach files to PDFs in Adobe Acrobat. In addition to attaching a file, we will look at how to open, delete, and add a description to an attachment. Stay tuned to the end for important information about emailing PDFs with attachments.

I will be using Adobe Acrobat Pro DC. However, the steps are the same in Acrobat Standard DC and similar in older versions of the software.
