Sorry. I thought putting the URL for the "non-working" PDF in the URL box would
provide it. It doesn't seem to though. Therefore, here's the example PDF.

Thank you for your bug. What version of Ubuntu do you use? Where should the attachment be? Do you have any pdf reader doing that?

The Adobe Acrobat Reader can read the attachments.

Evince actually already has an 'Attachments' item greyed out in it's Sidebar. It's even a HIG violation to have menuitems greyed-out while not implemented.

I'm using Ubuntu Edgy with Evince 0.8.0 (from Feisty) backported to it. I did the backport myself.

The problem is that the attachments aren't at the top level - they are on pages 2 and 3.
