I've got some news while I'm getting YTD launch ready

While I'm getting everything ready to upload YTD Player, it occurred to me that I could share a tool that might help you out. Let me tell you its story.

Countless times, I've received PDF files that contained other files as attachments. The sad thing is, both the PDF viewer in Chrome and Edge browser don't allow you to download these files included within the original PDF.

This happens to me often; I get one of these notorious PDFs in my email. The traditional way to access them involves downloading and installing Adobe Acrobat Reader, which in turn installs a bunch of things on your system that you probably neither need nor want, like the infamous updater that activates at the most inconvenient times.

So, in the end, I always ended up installing Acrobat Reader only to uninstall it later. That's when, out of frustration, I decided to create a small, lightweight tool that would allow me to extract embedded files in a practical, fast, and easy way.

Introducing... sorry for my lack of creativity in names, the PdfAE PDF Attachments Extractor.

Finally, I shared it as open-source on GitHub so that anyone can access the source code and even understand how I did it. I used a library called Itext, which is very user-friendly, and I highly recommend it.

Right here, I'm leaving an image that explains how it works and what the process looks like.
