How to use attached sample documents for multiple Bug Reports
It is not necessary and not useful to attach the same document in multiple bug reports again and again. You can simply create a link with the text "attachment 12345 from Bug 6789" in the comment text or report text. So you get a link to download the attachment easily and additionally you contribute information in what Bug report other interesting information concerning the document can be found. You find the attachment number by mouseover at the link in the original bug as the screenshot shows. Or you can copy / paste that info from the Bugzilla Attachment Details Info page. It's important to know at what Bug the attachment has been submitted, the Comments often contain important additional information.
The advantage compared to a copy is that everybody knows that the sample document in the new document is identical (the same) as in the other bug where the attachment has been added; so it is much more easy to compare results.
