Add File Attachment Annotation

File attachment annotations allow you to embed external files as interactive icons on a PDF page. Using the file-path overload, you can attach files directly from disk without manually opening streams. This method also lets you customize the annotation icon and provide a description for users.

1. Create the PdfContentEditor object.
2. Bind the input PDF.
3. Define the Annotation Rectangle.
4. Add the File Attachment Annotation.
5. Save the updated Document.
