Unable to insert files into Adobe Reader X

[Guest]

Hi

I'm looking to insert another file into a PDF using the paperclip feature, however i don't seem to have the option available to me under the Comment / Annotations ribbon as the insert paperclip isn't there.

I'm running

Windows 7 Enterprise SP1

Adobe Reader X 10.1.16

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Karl

Adobe Acrobat Reader doesn't have that ability. The full version of Acrobat does.

Thanks Graffiti,

Do you know if there a free version which can do this which i could use in a corporate environment ?

Adobe doesn't have a free option to do this, no. Sorry.

I have Acrobat Reader DC installed on my own laptop which allows me to attach files using the paper clip feature.  Is this purely down to the reader x version i have installed?

If you open this application and go to Help>About, what exactly does it say you have and what version is it?

Sorry for the delay Graffiti (all)

The version version(s) i have installed are Adobe Reader X release 10.1.16, which doesn't seem to have the options available and Adobe Acrobat Reader DC release 2015.020.20042

Wrong. Reader XI and higher has this option built-in, without needing additional rights. Files opened in earlier versions of Reader require the File Attachment Right to be able to do that.

The feature is available in Adobe Reader X when the PDF file was enabled for this:
