Businesses and individuals use PDF files to create detailed documents. Although the feature isn't always utilized, PDF files can also include file attachments within the document. When you receive a PDF with attachments, you can open the file from inside the document directly. You can open many different file types, including Word documents, music files and videos. Besides opening the file attachment from the PDF, you can save the file on your computer as well.
