Delete an attachment in a PDF file file using adobe acrobat Reader

I have a Adobe reader file, I open it with Adobe Acrobat Reader DC. This file has attachements in it. I want to delete few of them. Please help me how.

 

I'm able to open the navigation tab and then to the attachements. But unable to delete the attached file.

Deleting attachments requires Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Standard, Acrobat Reader can't.

Hi there

Adobe Acrobat Reader DC is a freeware application with limited functions. It is used to view, read, annotate, fill and sign the PDFs. For more information, please check the help page - Adobe Acrobat Reader DC FAQs

1. Pay for a subscription to Acrobat Pro (12 month commitment).

2. Download and install Acrobat Pro.

3. Start Acrobat Pro and you can delete attachments.
