Use this:

 

<rx:pdf-comment content="" title="attachment" opacity="0"><rx:pdf-file-attachment src="footerfields.pdf" filename="footerfields.pdf"/></rx:pdf-comment>

Subject: How to use <rx:pdf-file-attachment> without an icon?

 

Hi,

 

I am using the XEP extension rx:pdf-file-attachment in order to append my xml source file to the resulting pdf-file.

This technic works pretty fine but I don’t like the icon, which is produced due to the specification

 

<!ENTITY % comments

  " pdf-sticky-note

  | pdf-file-attachment">

 

<!ELEMENT pdf-comment (%comments;)> <!-- just one particular comment! -->

<!ATTLIST pdf-comment

  content CDATA #IMPLIED

  title CDATA #REQUIRED

  color CDATA #IMPLIED

  opacity CDATA #IMPLIED>

 

<!ELEMENT pdf-sticky-note EMPTY>

<!ATTLIST rx:pdf-sticky-note

  icon-type ( comment | key | note | help | newparagraph

                      | paragraph | insert ) #IMPLIED

  open ( false | true ) #IMPLIED>

 

<!ELEMENT pdf-file-attachment EMPTY>

<!ATTLIST pdf-file-attachment

  src CDATA #REQUIRED

  filename CDATA #REQUIRED

  icon-type ( graph | pushpin | paperclip | tag ) #IMPLIED>

 

where rx:pdf-file-attachment is a child of a <rx:pdf-comment> with an implied icon-type.

 

Can anybody tell me how to avoid this visible icon?

Wouldn’t I be good if the icon-type can be extended with the value “no-icon” ?

 

I fully understand, that this icon has no influence on the printed pdf, but I cannot explain this to all of my customers.

 

 

By the way:

I took a second approach to reach my goal:

I used “pdftk” with option “attach_files” and my xml is attached to the pdf without any visible icon.

So in my humble opinion it is possible to avoid an icon for pdf-file-attachments.

 

Nevertheless I prefer to stay with RenderX rather than to mix with a second tool like pdftk

 

Kind regards
