com.aspose.pdf.Document pdfDocument = new com.aspose.pdf.Document("input.pdf");
//setup new file to be added as attachment
com.aspose.pdf.FileSpecification fileSpecification = new com.aspose.pdf.FileSpecification("sample.txt", "Sample text file");
//add attachment to document's attachment collection
pdfDocument.getEmbeddedFiles().add(fileSpecification);
// Save updated document containing table object
pdfDocument.save("output.pdf");
//setup new file to be added as attachment
com.aspose.pdf.FileSpecification fileSpecification = new com.aspose.pdf.FileSpecification("sample.txt", "Sample text file");
//add attachment to document's attachment collection

pdfDocument.save("output.pdf");
Get an individual attachment from the PD
com.aspose.pdf.Document pdfDocument = new com.aspose.pdf.Document("input.pdf");
com.aspose.pdf.FileSpecification fileSpecification = pdfDocument.getEmbeddedFiles().get_Item(1);
System.out.printf("Name: - " + fileSpecification.getName());
System.out.printf("\nDescription: - " + fileSpecification.getDescription());
System.out.printf("\nMime Type: - " + fileSpecification.getMIMEType());
try {
InputStream input = fileSpecification.getContents();
File file = new File(fileSpecification.getName());
file.getParentFile().mkdirs();
java.io.FileOutputStream output = new java.io.FileOutputStream(fileSpecification.getName(), true);
byte[] buffer = new byte[4096];
int n = 0;
while (-1 != (n = input.read(buffer)))
output.write(buffer, 0, n);
System.out.printf("Name: - " + fileSpecification.getName());
System.out.printf("\nDescription: - " + fileSpecification.getDescription());
System.out.printf("\nMime Type: - " + fileSpecification.getMIMEType());
try {
InputStream input = fileSpecification.getContents();
File file = new File(fileSpecification.getName());
file.getParentFile().mkdirs();
java.io.FileOutputStream output = new java.io.FileOutputStream(fileSpecification.getName(), true);
byte[] buffer = new byte[4096];
int n = 0;
while (-1 != (n = input.read(buffer)))
output.write(buffer, 0, n);
input.close();
output.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
pdfDocument.dispose();
output.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
pdfDocument.dispose();
