You can get the attachments with PdfReader but it requires dictionary access. The sequence is:
- get page dic - locate file attachment annotation - find the stream with the annotation. Starting from the annotation and traveling the dics is: /FS/EF/F - decode the stream with PdfReader.getStreamBytes() You'll need the pdf reference to know what you're doing. This is a lot simpler than it looks. I'll try to create an example this weekend.
