Hi Sophieb,

Sorry for the delay in response.

As you have mentioned above, by "to make a PDF form and attach a file to this form" do you meant to create a field to attach a document?

Or you are referring that you need to attach a document to the PDF form?

To attach a file to the PDF, you may refer to the steps mentioned here Links and attachments in PDFs, Adobe Acrobat

If you are referring to create a field to attach PDF in the form, by default there is no option for that.

However, you may try it using the Javascript. https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/how-to-create-a-button-form-field-to-insert-a-pdf-file

Refer this thread Add an "Attach File" button to a PDF form. with a similar query.

Hope that helps.

Let us know if you have any questions.

Regards,

Meenakshi

Yes, you can attach files to forms.

If you choose the 'Edit PDF' tool, then 'Attach File' is available under the More dropdown menu. You can also attach files from the Navigation Pane on the left, under the Attachments option.
