Insert a PDF ro Word doc into an Excel sheet

I have to track parts.  I created a spreadsheet to do this.  We are trying to as paparless as possible is my office.  I need to insert a PDF copy or the actual Word doc into the spreadsheet so my techs can access it and indicate that the
parts have arrived.  This spreadsheet is on a SharePoint site and so are the PDF or Word copies of the documents that the techs need.  Inserting a hyperlink will pull the PDF doc up in another web tab which is what I don't want. 
I need to be able to pull the docs up and modify them and save them back to the SharePoint file. Help!  THANKS!!!! 

Have you considered using a SharePoint list instead of an excel spreadsheet? You can then attach one or many documents to each row in the list.

  • Garbled text after inserting a converted MS Word Doc into PDF

    I am on a PC running XP professional using Word 2003 and Acrobat Pro v.8.
    I successfully converted a variety of MS Office (Word, Excel,PowerPoint) documents into Acrobat Pro v8 PDF files. I then took all of these individually converted PDF files and merged into one large PDF file.
    As stated, I verified that the documents converted successfully to individual PDF files, but when merging the files into one PDF file, some of the headers and/or text in the body contains garbled/scrambled text.
    This is a massive project and I am pushing 300 pages. Does anyone have any suggestions to solve this problem. I have tried converting them through Word and Acrobat Pro with no luck.
    Thank you,
    Chad

    After much tinkering around, I have finally solved the issue of the garbled text upon insertion of a converted file into a PDF file:
    1. In Word, click on the Adobe PDF tab
    2. click "change conversion settings"
    3. click on Settings tab (may be default tab)
    4. put a check in the box that says "PDF/A-1a; 2005 compliant file"
    5. click ok
    6. convert to PDF file
    7. inserted converted PDF file into another PDF
    I confirmed that my file now converts properly and there is no garbled text!
    I do not know what "PDF/A-1a; 2005 compliant file" is, but it worked!

  • Insert a spreadsheet and word docs into a PDF with hyperlinks

    I have a spreadsheet index with hyperlinks to 455 single page word docs. I want to make a single pdf by inserting the spreadsheet followed by the word docs.
    Is there a way of having the hyperlinks recognize the inserted word docs pages inside the pdf via the original hyperlinks, or do I need to remove the hyperlinks before inserting the spreadsheet and then do bookmarks for all 455 pages? Or some other method?

    James,
    I doubt that will work. But it should be easy enough to find out. If you
    print to pdf from ID, I guarantee is will not work. If you export from
    ID, I doubt it will work, but ask in the ID forum, since the creation
    does not depend upon Acrobat.

  • Text Hyperlink from PDF (converted Word doc) to specific Excel cell in same Portfolio

    Good Morning,
    I have created a Word document with an embedded Excel sheet (both Office 2007) and created a text hyperlink within the document that points to a specific cell on a specific tab. My company wants to send our document to a customer, but will only send PDFs. When converting to PDF the hyperlink does not work any longer.
    To make the behaviour in Word one must open the embedded Excel object to the specific sheet and then copy the specific cell in question. In Word choose Paste as Hyperlink. Press Alt+F9 and then change HYPERLINK to hyperLINK. Press Alt+F9. Edit the Settings of the Hyperlink and change the Text to Display.
    Is there a way to do this with Acrobat 10? The plus side would be that the Excel document would not be embedded in Word although it would still need the Document ID of the Excel file in the portfolio. Futhermore, the Word document won't be included in the portfolio.

    While Acrobat cannot pass opening parameters to non-PDF files it can do so for PDF (under specific circumstances).
    See the "Parameters for Opening PDF Files" document at:
    http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdf_open _parameters_v9.pdf

  • Is there a way to insert a file (such as a PDF or Word doc) into a presentation?

    I have a few pdf "highlight sheets" that I'd like learners to be able to access and print out if they'd like, while watching the presentation.
    Is there a way to insert a file into the course? (For instance, if they click a certain button, the file would be downloaded to their computer?)
    Thanks,
    Inna

    While Michael's answer is technically correct, I never advise to use the browse button to locate the file. Doing so puts the link in peril as it typically creates an absolute path leading to the document you wish to link to. So use the button if you must, but before committing the link, ensure you remove any pathing information and leave behind only the document file name.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Why when I am converting a word doc into a PDF are some of the pages moving around. It appears to be

    Why when I am converting a 50 page word doc into a PDF using Acrobat XI Pro the pages are moving around.
    It appears to be happening in the places where the previous page is not a complete full page, just a half page.
    It is moving these pages up into the previous half page, but it is only moving them several lines into that page
    Which has totally distored my e-book.
    It is attaching all my pattern sheets at the very end of the file okay, etc.

    Also, to be more sure you get in the PDF what you are seeing in WORD, go to the print menu and select the Adobe PDF printer, then go back to editing. The is a feature of almost all word processors to reflow the document for best results with the attached printer. It is also one of the problems of using WORD forms that such form designers miss. If you don't like the reflow, many the Adobe PDF printer your default and always print to Acrobat. If you want it to go to a printer, then print from Acrobat to that printer and it should remain intact. The other way to avoid the reflow is to use a layout program like Publisher or InDesign.

  • How to insert a pdf or jpeg image into a blob column of a table

    How to insert a pdf or jpeg image into a blob column of a table

    Hi,
    Try This
    Loading an image into a BLOB column and displaying it via OAS
    The steps are as follows:
    Step 1.
    Create a table to store the blobs:
    create table blobs
    ( id varchar2(255),
    blob_col blob
    Step 2.
    Create a logical directory in the database to the physical file system:
    create or replace directory MY_FILES as 'c:\images';
    Step 3.
    Create a procedure to load the blobs from the file system using the logical
    directory. The gif "aria.gif" must exist in c:\images.
    create or replace procedure insert_img as
    f_lob bfile;
    b_lob blob;
    begin
    insert into blobs values ( 'MyGif', empty_blob() )
    return blob_col into b_lob;
    f_lob := bfilename( 'MY_FILES', 'aria.gif' );
    dbms_lob.fileopen(f_lob, dbms_lob.file_readonly);
    dbms_lob.loadfromfile( b_lob, f_lob, dbms_lob.getlength(f_lob) );
    dbms_lob.fileclose(f_lob);
    commit;
    end;
    Step 4.
    Create a procedure that is called via Oracle Application Server to display the
    image.
    create or replace procedure get_img as
    vblob blob;
    buffer raw(32000);
    buffer_size integer := 32000;
    offset integer := 1;
    length number;
    begin
    owa_util.mime_header('image/gif');
    select blob_col into vblob from blobs where id = 'MyGif';
    length := dbms_lob.getlength(vblob);
    while offset < length loop
    dbms_lob.read(vblob, buffer_size, offset, buffer);
    htp.prn(utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(buffer));
    offset := offset + buffer_size;
    end loop;
    exception
    when others then
    htp.p(sqlerrm);
    end;
    Step 5.
    Use the PL/SQL cartridge to call the get_img procedure
    OR
    Create that procedure as a function and invoke it within your PL/SQL code to
    place the images appropriately on your HTML page via the PL/SQL toolkit.
    from a html form
    1. Create an HTML form where the image field will be <input type="file">. You also
    need the file MIME type .
    2. Create a procedure receiving the form parameters. The file field will be a Varchar2
    parameter, because you receive the image path not the image itself.
    3. Insert the image file into table using "Create directory NAME as IMAGE_PATH" and
    then use "Insert into TABLE (consecutive, BLOB_OBJECT, MIME_OBJECT) values (sequence.nextval,
    EMPTY_BLOB(), 'GIF' or 'JPEG') returning BLOB_OBJECT, consecutive into variable_blob,
    variable_consecutive.
    4. Load the file into table using:
    dbms_lob.loadfromfile(variable_blob, variable_file_name, dbms_lob.getlength(variable_file_name));
    dbms_lob.fileclose(variable_file_name);
    commit.

  • When I converted a file from PDF to WORD.DOC it opened as Read Only and I'm unable to alter any of the text.  How can I solve this problem?

    When I tried to convert a file from PDF to WORD.DOC it opened as Read Only and I'm unable to alter any of the text.  How do I solve this problem?  I don't know how to change it from Read Only.

    Dear Sara
    Thank you very much for sending the converted file.  Yes, I am able to edit it - that will be very useful to me and I appreciate your help.
    Referring to your previous message when you said you'd converted via Acrobat and not Acrobat.com, I'm converting via Acrobat.com because that's the only option that is shown (how do I convert via Acrobat? - perhaps that would be more successful).  I'm using the Export PDF website, and the OCR is enabled to "Recognize text in English UK".  However, I've just tried converting a different LPA pdf form, this time for Health & Welfare https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/245571/LPA114_He alth_welfare_LPA.pdf and again I have the same problem as before.  I've altered it from "Read only" and thought I'd then be able to enter text, but "Drawing Tools" is shown in the pane and I'm unable to enter anything onto the form - everything appears to be in images.  Also, the lettering on the heading of' page 1 has become jumbled, with the word "Public" overlaying the word "Guardian."  Any suggestions as to what it is I'm doing wrong would be welcome - I don't like to be beaten!
    Regards,
    Judith.

  • Hyperlinks in PDF'd word doc

    hyeperlinks aren't happening after I PDF a Word doc. I'd be soooo grateful for right answer on this - the hyperlink feature is the whole point for me to have Pro.
    thanks so much.

    There is a PDF Creator
    from Code-Poetry http://www.codepoetry.net/projects/cups-pdf-for-mosx
    That will do it.  install. install it and if word has any hyperlinks when you go to Printer:
    The will Transfer over with no problem :
    Note the two email adresses show in this png one is mine that now goes to a spam dump email address for me.
    the other belonged to a cousin but she changed providers so this email address doesn't exist. Plus this a PNG representation and is not clickable
    this was a copy of an email that was  was converted to a word document  to be used in a family tree item on my website.
    In or to do this in acrobat I actually have to go to advanced menu then choose create to a url, or a  mailto
    This Utility actually proves a point, MS has been making about needed information to create URLs and Mailtos are in word Mac and have been all along.
