insert an adobe pdf file into a Publisher project ?

[OK Jeanne]

I am trying to create a breeders directory for a cattle association, and
several
people have sent me advertisements to include. One is in Adobe pdf form
and I can't figure out how to insert it without changing it to a jpg. I did
change
it to jpg form and the advertiser didn't want me to do that; saying it
degraded
the quality of the print/photo,etc.

It does.

If you convert to a PNG file at 300DPI at the intended printed size, then
there should be no quality loss.

This can be done using GhostScript in conjunction with GSView.

I've been able to do it on my system but I suspect that may be because I have
Acrobat installed on it. It may all boil down to whether you have the program
that created the file or not.
