    1. Instantiate the Viewer object. Specify a file that contains attachments.
    2. Call the GetAttachments method. It returns the attachment collection.
    3. Iterate through the collection. To save an attachment, call the SaveAttachment method.

    IList<Attachment> attachments = viewer.GetAttachments();
    // Save each attachments.
    foreach (Attachment attachment in attachments)
    {
        string filePath = Path.Combine("output", attachment.FileName);
