AttachmentField offers an Archetypes field that allows the management of attachments with features such as indexing and preview.
One of the best things about AttachmentField is that it can be used in place of a FileField, ensuring that your content types are simplified and streamlined. And if you've previously used the ZAttachmentAttribute from Ingeniweb, you'll be happy to know that AttachmentField serves as a complete replacement.
Of course, to use AttachmentField effectively, you'll need to meet certain requirements. These include having python-libxml2 and python-libxslt installed, as well as Plone 2.0.5 or Plone 2.1.x, and Archetypes 1.3.7 or later versions. You'll also need to have xpdf 3.0 or later, wvware 1.0 or later, xlhtml, ppthtml, and unrtf 0.19 or later on your system.
Despite these requirements, AttachmentField is well worth the effort. In fact, the latest release includes even more features to enhance your experience. For example, a recent bug that broke the configlet generation on Windows has been fixed, while an added PSAttachment based on pstotext offers even more functionality.
Overall, AttachmentField is a top-notch software solution that offers a convenient, streamlined approach to managing your file attachments. Whether you're running a small business, a large corporation, or something in between, this powerful tool offers everything you need to stay organized and productive.
