I am trying to crop a PDF to text that I want to enlarge on the slide. In
2003 it was very simple. However, I cannot find any available crop functions
in the 2007 format/drawing tools tab to complete these function. I want to
try to do it without converting it to another format if possible. Any
thoughts? Thanks in advance.

I do one of two methods to get PDFs into PP (same in 2003 and 2007)
the first orthodox way is to go to "insert object" and choose adobe acrobat
document. The second unorthodox way, but really simple, is to copy the
thumbnail of a pdf page to the clipboard in adobe and then paste it to a
slide. It keeps the integrity of the link to the PDF intact. This method I
haven't seen written about anywhere, so I guess it's not suggested, but it
works.
