List files attached to a PDF

Use jetformat pdf attachments to list files attached to a PDF.

By Jetformat

Check attachments when reviewing a document package. A PDF can contain embedded files that are not visible in the page rendering.

Steps

  1. Start with a local PDF. Replace the sample paths and identifiers with your own.
  2. Run the command below. Read the returned data before choosing a follow-up edit.
  3. Check the result as described below before using it in another job.
jetformat pdf attachments attached.pdf

Check the result

Review the reported file names before sharing; a visual page check alone does not audit attachments.

Notes and limits

This is a free utility or read operation. It does not need a paid conversion to inspect the result.

Run jetformat pdf attachments --help to compare options with your installed version.

See the pdf command reference for the surrounding workflow.
