Did you know that you can attach related documents to your SOLIDWORKS model all in one
file?
Yes, that is true. Microsoft Word or PDF files can be attached to Design Binder folder which
appears in the FeatureManager design tree. This folder allows you to include documents
with related notes to both part and assembly files. The following image shows where the
Design Binder can be found and the default embedded file included in the binder:

by right-clicking on the document and selecting “Open” from the shortcut menu. Other
documents such as PDF files can also be attached to the file by right-clicking on the Design
Binder and selecting “Add Attachment” from the shortcut menu.
