PDF Conversion

[TJ]

Hello:

I am trying to keep my word functionality (table of contents) when creating
one of my companies documents. I have a scanner that scans in to pdf's. If I
have a mulitple page pdf, can I insert it into Word 2003? At this point, only
the firs page is coming through. I went to insert/object/Adobe Acrobat 7.0
document.

Adobe said the issue is with Microsoft, but it can be done.

Thank you very much for your help.

You can't insert a pdf document into word, all you can do is insert a link to
a pdf object (file). What you seen on screen is just a low resolution screen
version of the first page of the pdf so you can see what it looks like. It
will print low-resolution like this. You should probably scan to a .tif or
..jpeg graphic file, instead of scanning to pdf.

Objects inserted into Word cannot span pages. Scan as separate pages and
insert each page object individually. That's the only way it can be done.

I found another way. Save the pdf as a doc file using Adobe Acrobat (not
reader), then insert file. Thanks for the help!

There are also programs that will convert .pdf files to Word docs. I have
one and have had various degrees of success with the program.

In that case you are not inserting the PDF, but a Word document - but if
that works for you ....
