Inserting PDF Files

Hi,
I'm after a bit of help, I'm trying to create a customer proposal and want to add some product datasheets into my document. I can drag the pdf into pages and it works fine except it only seems to show the first page of the PDF.
How do I get to include all the pages of the PDF without having to first split it into separate pages before I insert them into Pages.
I hope there is a solution or I'm going to have to resort to MS Word!!!

Peggy,
Thanks for your prompt and hopefully helpful response. I'm sure I tried this but it was late so I was starting to loose the plot! I'm sure I didn't get the option to to Copy from the draw. I'll have another go later.
If this works it will be fine for what I need. It's the first time I've used Pages for real so I still have a lot to learn. The ability to drag in PDFs could be the killer feature for us as doing it in Word seriously reduces the quality of the pdf so we usually have to create a word document and then send the native pdf datasheets as separate files which makes the overall proposal less attractive and more difficult to read and digest.
Thanks
Chris

  • Inserting pdf files in word for mac

    For the life of me I can't figure out how to insert pdf files in my word for mac document. I can insert the first page of the file by inserting it as an object but can't figure out how to insert the entire document.
    Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    It actually isn't an odd thing to do. I have been working on a word document - a final report - for a client. I need to add several pdf files as part of the appendices. If I was printing off only a hard copy, I would simply print the pdf file and add them to the end of the report. However, my clients require that the entire document include all the appendices - on one document - to make it simple for anyone who needs to see the final report. I also need to mention that the pdf file is translated document in Inukutuk and I cannot simply copy it and then insert it as the fonts will not translate properly. Complicated I know.... When I insert the document only the first page of the 45 page Inuk document is inserted.
    The pdf files came to me from the translators and I don't know what kind of pdf file it is - I can't tell.
    Not sure if that is helpful or not...
    thanks.

  • How to insert pdf file to adobe reader in windows phone 8? which directory?

    How to insert pdf file to adobe reader in windows phone 8? which directory?

    An other way is to copy the pdf with Windows explorer into the path /documents of the phone. Open Office and choose Adobe Reader. The pdf will be copyed in the Sandbox of the Reader and You may read it. You may delete the PDF in the documents path. It will still be in the Readers sandbox. All without any cloud ;-)!

  • Using pages how to insert pdf files on ipad?

    using pages how to insert pdf files on ipad?    
    Anybody have any idea, have pdf files in ibook do not see where to insert pdf's.
    Also trying to get word files onto ipad using drop box, do these word files need to be saved in another format?
    Also for pages.
    thnx

    No - the Word files do not need to be saved in any other format if you have Pages on your iPad. There are other apps that provide better compatibility than Pages but it will work for you. You have to have DropBox on your PC and the free DropBox app on the iPad to use DropBox to transfer files.
    To send the file using DropBox -  make sure DropBox is running on your computer. Then place the file in one of the folders that you have set in your DropBox folder on your PC. Launch DropBox on your iPad and find the folder that you placed the file into and tap on that folder. Find the document and tap on it. It will open in the window on the right. Tap the arrow icon in the upper right corner and select Open in Pages.
    If you have pdf files in iBooks that you want to put into Pages you have to email them to yourself and use the Open In feature when you open the email. You cannot send a file from iBooks other than to email it - at least I am not aware of any other way.

  • I want to insert .pdf files into a "Master" .pdf file at pre-determined intervals - how do I do this?

    I want to insert .pdf files into a "Master" .pdf file at pre-determined intervals - how do I do this?

    Hi markm11762689,
    When you insert pages, you can determine whether they go before or after the first or last page, or a page number that you specify.
    If you're inserting multiple files at once, they will all be inserted in the same spot that you specify in the Select File to Insert dialog box.
    There may be a way to handle this programmatically, and there are some very clever folks who visit these forums regularly. Let's see if they chime in...
    Best,

  • Inserting pdf file into database

    I am trying to insert a adobe pdf file into a multimedia field in my database and while I can get it to cut and past I would like it to auto size into the box that I have defined for it. I have many records to compile, thousands. Some of these pdf files have several pages and it would be nice to be able to scroll through thier content in that multimedia field box. How do I do this? Is it possible? If not I assume I am stuck with making a link that opens the file. I assume this is possible. How do I do this?
    Thanks in Advance,
    Shane

    Hello
    You may enter the Layout > Layout mode to enlarge the area dedicated to the multimedia field.
    But there is no provision for an autosize feature.
    The link soluce is not available in databases.
    I mimic it true the "enhanced database" structure requiring an AppleScript.
    You may find the script on my temp iDisk or in the Peggy's one which is organised well.

  • Problems opening, inserting PDF files

    I have a user (Windows 7, Acrobat Standard 10.1.8) who is unable to see files when trying to open files from within Acrobat or insert files to an existing PDF document. If they go to the file outside of Acrobat they can open the file. If they open Acrobat first and then go to File > Open no files show up in the window.  Same for inserting files. If they try to insert a PDF into an existing PDF the window shows no files, no matter if PDF files or All Files are selected.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat and that corrected the problem for a day.  I have installed all updates so not sure what the problem is.

    Sounds like the OS is doing something. Next time try a repair instead of the reinstall. If the repair does the job, it is a lot faster until you can trace down the problem.
    When it happens, does a reboot make a difference?

  • Inserting PDF files into iPhoto

    I am trying to insert separator pages for my slideshow using the article in MacWorld. All is fine til I get to the point where I need to insert the pdf into my slideshow. Below is the error I receive:
    Unreadable files: 1
    The following file could not be imported. (This file is in an unrecognized format.)
    Here is what I have done so far in regs to troubleshooting.
    Removed my iPhoto library from my shared directory to my original Pictures directory & did the batchmod that someone recommended elsewhere to make sure all my iPhoto files/dir have the correct permissions/owners.
    Deleted all references to adobe reader on my mac & reinstalled the latest & greatest (7.0.8)
    Recreated the pdf files (from the pics) after I reinstalled reader 7.0.8.
    Ran disk utils to make sure permissions were correct on my system.
    Where else do I look to see what the file formats are besides Get Info? Dh says I should resintall iPhoto, but the updates take forever even with a dsl (but then it could have something to do with my 1500 pics too
    Something is missing between Adobe & iPhoto or even OS X but I can not seem to figure it out.
    I am currently running OS X 10.3.9 (Panther), iLife 6-iPhoto version 6.0.5 (316)
    Thanks in advance for any & all help.

    Thanks, OT for getting back on this. I was hoping you'd respond I've been reading all the posts you've had on this subject & knew you were a resident expert.
    I had seen before that the pdf's could not be imported but I was hoping that iLife 6 now took care of that problem & according to the below linked article it appeared to.
    http://www.macworld.com/2006/12/secrets/jandigitalphoto/index.php
    Is the article incorrect that this version of iLife does not support it as the article seems to imply?
    In regs to your suggestion, I had already done exactly as you suggested sometime yesterday & the quality of the jpeg that was done as a 'save as' from preview was horrible.
    I am now in the midst of using iDVD to make my slide show. Unfortunately, the process is slower than iPhoto & I'm not remembering what I've already edited, sorted, etc etc since I've been working on this for at least 2 days now & am now doing it a 2nd time.
    I've read your posts about you saying you only use iDVD for SS & thought I'd try it. I am having a problem about the refresh rate on our video & the speed with which it is working on our mac but I don't know if that is due to the number of photos on iDVD, the fact that I am still on OS X 10.3.9 & iLife 6 is supposed to work better on Tiger, my learning curve since I've never used it or what.
    Anyways, I'll be up bright & early tomorrow working on it hoping I can get it complete & shipped out to famiy members late afternoon or evening.
    Take care & thanks,

  • Insert pdf file into another pdf file keeps getting stuck

    I am trying to insert a 5 page pdf file into another pdf file (both unsecured) and it keeps getting stuck at about 71%* conplete. I can't even get the file to show up on the screen so i can close it. Help?

    I have tried several different files, and get the same phenomenon with each one –
    1.     I open an acrobat file.
    2.     I open a WORD file.
    3.     I copy a sentence from WORD to the clipboard.
    4.     I click on View in Acrobat, Tools, Pages, other options, insert from clipboard.
    5.     Acrobat shows that it is copying, and when it gets to 67% it stops and runs and runs and then only way I can stop it is to go to the task manager and end task.
    I tried refrying with a file and that didn’t work, and I can’t imagine that Acrobat was designed so that each time I try to insert from WORD I would have to refry (even if it did work).
    Please help!
    Thank you

  • Opening inserted PDF files in the EXCEL is freezing every time.  How do I solve it?

    The PDF documentos I inserted are not opening.  If I close everything and open again, It is possible to open the first or the second one, but after this they do not open any more and I have not only close de Adobe Reader but also finish the "acroRd32.exe" in the Windows Manager.  I need to insert many documents but even the first ones are malfunctioning.
    Please...What should I do to definitely solve this bug?

    What is your Reader XI version?  If less than 11.0.10, update to that version and try again.
    P.S. this is a public forum; please don't post all your contact info like telephone numbers, email addresses, etc.

  • Insert Object (create from pdf file) in wordpad fails

    Problem:
    I am unable to insert object (create from existing pdf file) in wordpad application.
    Environment:
    OS: Windows 7 Professional + SP1 (64-bit)
    Acrobat X (32-bit installer)
    Procedure:
    Open Wordpad application, click on 'Insert Object', choose 'Create from File', Browse and Select exsting pdf file, click 'Display As Icon' and Click 'Ok'
    Expexted Result:
    PDF should get inserted as OLE object to wordpad
    Actual Result:
    Error message "Failed to create object. Make sure the application is entered in the system registry."
    Addition Notes:
    I noticed that while insterting PDF (OLE object) it seach for certain registry key (AutoConvertTo) which is not available hence it fails.

    Yes, I am aware. But this problem appears only when I insert PDF file (which is Adobe file).
    I guess this has nothing to do specifically with 'wordpad' but I referenced known application from standard offiering. It happens with any 64-bit application using 'rich-edit' control (this is Microsoft too ) and allowing user to insert OLE objects.
    I guess somewhere Adobe Acrobat installation fails to create required registry entries which are being referred by 64-bit applications while inserting PDF files as OLE objects.

  • 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!

    Solution:
    Open Adobe Reader / Pro
    Go to Edit àPreferenceà General (LHS)àUncheck “Enable protected mode at startup”.
    Adobe Reader’s protected mode will be disabled
    Now try inserting Adobe document in Word, it will work.  

  • Inserting pdf in word

    While inserting pdf file in word document, quality (resolution) of pdf is decreased.
    Before while using Win XP and office 2003 the same was not happening.
    Now using Win 7 and office 2010

    I don't see how installing Acrobat will affect this internal Word functionality... The only thing connection might be that before you created your PDF files with Word (since Reader can not create PDF files), and now you're creting them with Acrobat, and Word "handles" its own PDF files better than those Acrobat creates, or something like that.
