Insert PDF in existing word without losing layout

S

Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to insert a pdf-file in
an existing worddocument, without losing the layout
from the document.

If this is possible, how do i do this?

Thanks in advance,

Johan

If you have the full version of Acrobat (not the just the reader), open the
PDF and save as RTF. Word can open that. How much of the formatting is
retained depends on how complex it is.

That will lose any formatting or layout.

The simplest option is to save all the PDF pages as image files and add
those to the Word document. Almost any other strategy will mean the document
will reflow.

The way I work around it is to use the copy as Picture
function rather than text. Of course it becomes tedious
if you want to put in a multi-page document. For one or
two pages it is workable. Good luck.
