Inserting a PDF object into a spreadsheet

Hello--
I am trying to create a PDF object in an excel spreadsheet. When I do this the PDF that I use shows up in the spreadsheet, but the mark-ups that exist in the original PDF file do not show. Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Perform the following steps to import a Microsoft Word document (*.doc) into a report using Crystal Reports:
1) Create a new Crystal report.
2) From the Insert menu, click OLE object.
3) Select Create from file.
4) Click Browse and open the file to use (in this case the Word document).
5) Place the OLE object in the section where you would like to see it.
You can only place the OLE Object in one section. You may need to create a Word document for each section. For instance, you can create a word document to use as OLE object in the Report Header section, and another one to place in the Page Header.

  • I cannot insert a pdf object into word 2010 (64 bit).

    I've tried to insert a pdf file (acrobat 11 pro installed) into word 2010 (64 bit) and get a message along the lines of:
    "the program used to create this object is acrobat. That program is either not installed on your computer or it is not responding. To edit this object, install Acrobat or ensure that any dialog boxes in Acrobat are closed."
    Acrobat 11 Pro is installed and works fine for everything else.
    I've never had a problem with this before.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    I've already tried to repair acrobat and I've uninstalled and reinstalled it but makes no difference.
    (problem also applied to excel and word pad)

    I am having this same issue.  Has it been solved yet?

  • Acroexch error attempting to insert a PDF object into Word 2013 document

    Is there a file extension to correct this problem?

    I'm amazed this still works at all. It seems to work for some people with Adobe Acrobat (NOT Adobe Reader). But all it does insert an icon, it doesn't seem a feature of any value or interest.

  • Unable to insert pdf object into ppt or word

    I am unable to insert a pdf object into Word or Powerpoint.  I have Adobe Reader 9.3 and Windows 7 MS Office 2010 64 bit.   Previously, I was able to perform this task without issue with the same software. 
    For word, I get:
    "The program used to create this object is AcroExch.  That program is either not installed on your computer or it is not responding.  The edit this object install AcroExch or ensure that any dialog boxes in AcroExch are closed". 
    For Powerpoint, I get:
    "The server application, source file, or item can't be found, or returned an unknown error.   You mayneed to reinstall the server application." 
    Was an update sent out that may have caused the issue? 
    Or is there a solution to resolve the issue?  The ony solution I have sound is Disabling Protect Mode which does not apply to this version of Reader. 
    Any help would be greately appreciated.  Thank you.

    There is another thread on this and seems to be an ongoing issue with neither Microsoft nor Adobe owning up to it.  What I did to work-around the issue is create a .zip file of the .pdf file which can then be put into the workd doc as an object file icon.  Worked for me.  Not the best solution but this has been ongoing since 2011, and this worked.

  • Unable to insert pdf object into 64-bit Word 2010

    I have always been able to insert pdf files into word documents.  However, when I upgraded to the 64-bit version of Word, I started experiencing the below issue.
    My setup is: Windows 7 64-bit, Word 2010 64-bit, Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro v9.4.7.
    When I attempt to insert a pdf file into Word, I receive the following message:
    "The program used to create this object is AcroExch.  That program is either not installed on your computer or it is not responding.  To edit this object, install AcroExch or ensure that any dialog boxes in AcroExch are closed."
    I have researched this issue a great deal. 
    Previously, I found a posting which specified some registry keys to delete.  I followed these directions and it worked.  But, after installing some updates, the issue is back and I am unable to find the post specifying the registry keys to remove.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

  • IMac. Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.3.1. Since I installed Yosemite, cannot insert a pdf document into a pdf document. What's my upgrade?

    I have an iMac with Yosemite. I have Adobe Acrobat Pro van 8.3.1.
    I am unable to insert a pdf document into a  pdf document. I go to Document/Insert in the menu bar, get a spinning ball, can do nothing with the app except force-quit.
    What's my upgrade? I cannot find one. Do I have to pay full price for a version that will work?

    Your version of Acrobat is quite old and not compatible with any current OS, so problems are to be expected. It is too old to qualify for an upgrade as well, so if you want the current version (XI) then you need to purchase a new license, which you can do via the Adobe Products Page.

    Hi Muzammil Bichoo ,
                                   when you copy the wda component, it will be copied and will be in active state, once all the components are activated means, windows, views, everything will be available.
    now create application for your component, if you have more than one window(interface view) select the one which you need for the application.

  • How do you insert another PDF document into an existing PDF page

    Here's some background.  I used to use Acrobat 5 (I know it's really old but it worked great for my needs, but it's time to upgrade).  Say I have an existing 1 page PDF document (an Invoice for example).  Sometimes in Excel I create additional supporting details/calculations/etc that I must place onto the Invoice.  In the past I would print my Excel document to PDF using PDF Broadgun (great tool!) - and I'd like to keep doing this.  Then I would go into Acrobat 5, open up my 1 page Invoice PDF document, then I'd use the Form tool, insert Icon, and select my "supporting" PDF document right onto the 1st page.  Then, as needed, I could resize it and place it anywhere on the existing Invoice/PDF 1 page document that I started with, and the resolution was great (i.e. no "grainy" appearances, etc).
    I've now upgraded to Acrobat XI Pro (well, technically I'm trialing to make sure it'll will meet my needs - so far so good, until I ran into this).  I have tried copying the Excel data directly into my PDF Invoice document, but it often times makes the object super large (way off the page left to right) and then I have to resize it (substantially reducing the size) in order to make it fit the page.  This resizing the causes the text to appear "grainy".
    So pretend that my original Invoice/PDF 1 page document took up the top 1/2 of the page.  Then in Excel I create some backup which is say 5-10 lines of calculations.  How can I get the Excel backup as an Image into my original 1 page document (and on 1 page)?  The only work around that I've found so far is to insert it as the last past, then highlight the new stuff from Excel, cut and copy it onto page 1 (these seems like several extra steps in my eyes, but it does work).
    I also want to avoid using screen snip-it, snagit, and various other tools for the following reasons:
    1.  I don't want to remove the grid lines within Excel (i.e. when you print from Excel the grid lines do not print by default)
    2.  I use PDF Broadgun to generate a PDF (i.e. electronic print) and then the data/document looks just like I'd want it to look if I had physically printed it
    Any thoughts?  Many thanks in advance for the help too.
    Other Details:  Windows 7 Pro, company/business use

    I don't see what the problem is with printing to PDF using the Adobe PDF printer as you did with the other tool. Then open your new Excel PDF and do the same process as before (assuming it worked for you). Just go to the Tools>Interactive and add a button field (I assume this is what you did before) and put the file there. At least give it a try as I think that is what you said you used to do.

  • How can i insert  more clob objects into oracle9i?

    my env:
    os: windows server 2003 ent sp2
    php:=5.2.3
    oracle : 9.0.0.8
    i look at this article :
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/oracle_php_cookbook/fuecks_lobs.html
    but ,i want insert two clob into the oracle ....
    Inserting a LOB
    To INSERT an internal LOB, you first need to initialize the LOB using the respective Oracle EMPTY_BLOB or EMPTY_CLOB functions—you cannot update a LOB that contains a NULL value.
    Once initialized, you then bind the column to a PHP OCI-Lob object and update the LOB content via the object's save() method.
    The following script provides an example, returning the LOB type from the INSERT query:
    <?php
    // connect to DB etc...
    $sql = "INSERT INTO
    mylobs
    id,
    mylob
    VALUES
    mylobs_id_seq.NEXTVAL,
    --Initialize as an empty CLOB
    EMPTY_CLOB()
    RETURNING
    --Return the LOB locator
    mylob INTO :mylob_loc";
    $stmt = oci_parse($conn, $sql);
    // Creates an "empty" OCI-Lob object to bind to the locator
    $myLOB = oci_new_descriptor($conn, OCI_D_LOB);
    // Bind the returned Oracle LOB locator to the PHP LOB object
    oci_bind_by_name($stmt, ":mylob_loc", $myLOB, -1, OCI_B_CLOB);
    // Execute the statement using , OCI_DEFAULT - as a transaction
    oci_execute($stmt, OCI_DEFAULT)
    or die ("Unable to execute query\n");
    // Now save a value to the LOB
    if ( !$myLOB->save('INSERT: '.date('H:i:s',time())) ) {
    // On error, rollback the transaction
    oci_rollback($conn);
    } else {
    // On success, commit the transaction
    oci_commit($conn);
    // Free resources
    oci_free_statement($stmt);
    $myLOB->free();
    // disconnect from DB etc.
    ?>

    Use something like:
    sql = "INSERT INTO mylobs (id, mylob1, mylob2) VALUES
    (mylobs_id_seq.NEXTVAL, EMPTY_CLOB(), EMPTY_CLOB()) RETURNING
    mylob1, mylob2 INTO :mylob_loc1, :mylob_loc2";
    You'll need to allocated two lob descriptors and bind both to the statement.

  • Insert doc/pdf/jpg into BLOB using forms (web based)

    Hi All,
    we have 81741 db on window2000(data server), forms6.0.8.20.1 on windows2000(webserver)
    & users using IE6/netscape as setup. User wants to store a pdf/doc/jpg file (stored on his PC)
    into database.
    He wants ability to view this pdf/doc/jpg later & have ability to download again to his pc. Please note
    that we have web based setup & not using HTTP server (using WebDB listener).
    I am planning to use BLOB to store the table in database, but cannot figure out what/how to force forms
    to do this.
    If someone has done this before, could you please update this thread on how to proceed.
    Thanks a lot for your input...
    Abhi.

    AS far as inserting images you can use the image item in Oracle Forms and base it on a blob column in the database.
    Regarding the other types of data you can upload them to the database using a Java function on the application server (use the java importer from Forms to call the Java class). You can use another Java function to retrieve the info from the database to the application server, and then use web.show_document to get the file from the application server to the client.
    Or you can wait a few weeks for the Webutil utility that will have this functunality built into it.

  • Does mail always insert the pdf file into the email rather than attachment

    How can I set mail to always attach pdf files as attachments rather than insert into the mail message?

    But if you receive an email with a PDF attachment - which appears as text embedded in the email rather than an attachment are you really saying that the only way to solve this is to resend the email to yourself so that it will then appear as a PDF attachment?
