Scott Pakin submitted an update to the

                attachfile

package.

Version number: 1.6
License type: lppl1.3

Summary description: Attach arbitrary files to a PDF document

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Starting with PDF 1.3 (Adobe Acrobat 4.0), PDF files can
contain file attachments -- arbitrary files that a reader
can extract, just like attachments to an e-mail message.
The attachfile package brings this functionality to pdfLaTeX
and provides some additional features not available in
Acrobat, such as the ability to use arbitrary LaTeX code for
the file icon -- including things like \includegraphics,
tabular, and math.  Settings can be made either globally or
on a per-attachment basis.  attachfile makes it easy to
attach files and customize their appearance in the enclosing
document.

Version 1.6 of attachfile embeds only a single copy of a
file in the PDF document even if the file is attached
multiple times.
