Inserting Files into Word

[Guest]

Can I insert a pdf (portable document format) file into Word 2003?

Moya, yes, as an embedded object:

Insert > Object > Create from File > Browse. Navigate to the file, then
Insert. Check Display as icon, click Change icon if you want to change the
icon or caption, then OK.

To view the .pdf file, double-click the icon.

Hi Moya

Not as editable text. You can save from PDF in graphic formats, and then
insert the graphic - this is often useful for showing 'sample' documents or
for placing a PDF form as a background to overtype, for example.

If you're using Adobe Acrobat version 5.0 or later, you can do a Save As in
Acrobat, choose the file type to be TIFF, and then insert the resulting
file(s) into MS Word as pictures.

Acrobat 6.0 can also save as a JPEG or PNG.
