A link to an embedded file is itself a copy of the embedded file

Hi,

We have a requirement to embed a file in a pdf and then create links to it. Unfortunately, each link to an embedded file is itself a copy of the embedded file, so we end up with multiple copies of the file embedded in the pdf. I have included a console app that embeds a file and then creates 2 links to it - the final result, output.pdf, contains 3 copies of the embedded file.

sample console app.zip (10.2 KB)

Thanks!
