      The question was asked before in the Atlassian Answers.
      https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/124674/export-to-pdf-and-include-attachments

      There is tool that can embed attachment inside PDF
      search for attach_files
      https://www.pdflabs.com/docs/pdftk-man-page/
      But please review if there is licensing issue with pdftk (which use itext5,
      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IText)

      It seems the old version of pdftk (based on itext2) may not have the licensing issue.
      BTW, the 'old' pdftk becomes pdftk-server now, which seems to be GPL but have licensing terms for commercial use..... https://www.pdflabs.com/docs/pdftk-license/

      FYI, tcpdf (php) is another library that can attach files into pdf
