How do i manage attachments?

The Attachment (ATT) tag is designed to list the tagged reference documents or graphics at the end of the Section Table of Contents when it is printed during the Process & Print/Publish stage. It is important to understand that the Attachment (ATT) tag does not embed the attachment(s) into the Section itself and requires them to be manually inserted into the final PDF output.
