Unable to insert PDF object into Word 2013

Hi,
While trying to insert PDF (Adobe Reader X 10.1.0) document into Word
(Microsoft office Professional plus 2013 15.0.4420.1017) getting below error.
Error 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 to ensure that any dialog
boxes in Acroexch are closed
Also i tried mentioned steps:
Step1: Open Adobe Reader and goto Edit ==> References (ctrl+k).
Step2: In General uncheck the Enable protected mode at startup.
But still getting the same error.
Any suggestion Please!!!!!!!
Thanks in advance.

  • 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.  

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Insert  PDF document into Word 2007 document

    I am trying to insert a PDF document into a Word 2007 document and only the first page inserts.  I am desperate to finish this project.  Thanks for any help.

    A lot depends on what your end goal is in using the PDF. Without some concept of where you are headed, there is not much more that can be said, other than list a bunch of other ways to interact with WORD.
    Yeah, I agree with Bill@VT. More precisely say, if you just need to quote the pdf content, you can just use "snagit" screenshot program to capture desired part of the pdf file as an image then paste into your word document. Usually in this way, there will not any resize or data loss of reuse pdf content into word file.
    And of course, if you want to further change or edit the pdf content or seamlessly <link removed>, you just try to convert pdf to word with Adobe Acrobat or other software.

  • 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?

  • Inserting PDF form into Word

    I am needing to insert an interactive PDF form into a section in a word document. It is an approval page and MUST be pdf-protected, but still let the user fill in the areas where allowed. Word lets me insert this file and I am able to type in the areas where needed - the interactive feature works great to this point. Even after saving what I've typed/entered, it still doesn't display what I typed in Word (the inserted interactive PDF). Can anyone tell me how I can get my pdf to work properly this way?

    I have not done this but I can assure you that there is nothing in Designer to do with this. At that point it is a PDF so how woudl you add any other PDF to your swing panel?

  • Unable to convert PDF file into word document

    I just signed up with Adobe in order to convert a PDF file into a word document and it continues to fail.  Any suggestions.

    If you have adobe X, simply go to "File" -> "Save-As" and Microsoft Word is an option. Also, there is a download (paid) called Able2Extract that will allow you to convert pdfs to word, excel, etc. but the formatting is often lost. If you get the premium package, you can even convert scanned documents. I've used Adobe X to do the conversion, and it retains headers, footers and all formatting.
    And i personally share you with a article about how to converting PDF files to Word(.doc), you just need to follow the easy guide.
    Hope it can help you a lot.

  • Bug Report: Original image location sometimes displayed in PDF created with Word 2013

    I found a non-critical security bug in Office 2013.
    Here is the issue:
    If you drag and drop an image into Word 2013 (I'm using x64 version in Windows 7 if that matters) and then save as PDF (using the default settings) it saves the full file path of the original file in the PDF such that the full path name gets displayed when
    you hover over the image. I've only tested this in Adobe Reader XI. If you use the Insert Picture method then this does not occur.

    I found this posting as I have now "rediscovered" this issue. I came to the same conclusion - edit ALT TEXT for every image.
    However, I think it is confusing that these paths of image file are not considered Personal Information that can be removed using the Inspect Document feature (I tried - was not successful). The list of things to be removed using this wizard is quite extensive
    - and some of them less visible than these file paths.
    It would be interesting to know if this is going to change with future updates of Word. Why is an ALT TEXT included at all per default? I think using the file path in ALT TEXT should be made optional. Is there a way to turn off this default embedding of
    the full path?
    As the OP I also used Office 2013 on Windows 7 64bit.

  • Having problems pasting Visio 2013 Drawings into Word 2013

    Hello I am having issues pasting Visio 2013 drawings into Word 2013. For some reason when I select and copy the visio drawing into Word 2013, a portion of the drawing is cut-off and I cannot resize it to fit the entire drawing. I can double-click the drawing
    but it only gets me back into Visio. I just want the entire drawing to show up correctly when I paste into Word. Never had this problem with previous versions! Please help!!!

    Hi,
    Could you please tell us how do you past Visio 2013 drawings into Word 2013?
    Generally, we can select the entire drawing by pressing Ctrl + A, then copy the entire drawing.
    Or we can insert Visio 2013 drawings into Word by Insert > Object > Create from File.
    Note: Make sure tick the option of Link to file.
    Feel free to post back.

    BizGuru,
    Somethings to consider.
    --| In Windows - the OS needs a goodly space for 'elbow room' - you don't want to have HDD free space drop below something like 15%.
       Say your HDD is 600GB, 60GB free space is leaving you 10%...
    -| RAM - May not be enough; more is better <g>.
    --| Virtual Memory - if in Windows, open up Task Manager. Look at all the "stuff" there. Most is not required by the OS.
        Most of the listing is "stuff" associated with a full cart of processes associated with things you may not need or use but they suck up resources.
    --| Graphics - Processing images into PDF can be resource intensive. Having a dedicated graphics card with enough ram makes a difference.
    Be well...

  • Cannot edit pdf text in word 2013

    I have just opened a PDF document on Word 2013. However the entire document is showing up as a picture and I am unable to edit the text.
    please tell me how i can edit the pdf file using word 2013 as I believe we can. maybe i need to change the way the document is scanned.
    please advise.

    PDFs produced by scanning processes and the like often have no text in them or, if they've been made searchable, have both the scanned pages and the text behind them. The text in such cases is typically produced by an OCR process and may not be entirely
    accurate. If the PDF isn't searchable, then all you have is page images. When such PDFs are opened in Word, that's also all you'll get. If a scanned PDF is searchable, the opened file in Word will have the same structure - images overlaying the OCR'd text;
    in that case, deleting the images will reveal the text behind them.

  • How To Insert A object into Conext

    Hi Techies,
    I have 8 tables in my designer
    and I have two contexts at designer level
    And how to insert a object into a context that is not referencing any table.
    For Example I have an object like "rownum" (Which should must be added at Universe level only not at report level). Here this object is not referencing any table and I want this to be used in a query where the remaining objects are coming from the context..
    Thanks in Advance..

          Double-click the Objects and click the TABLES button and select the table you want to associate the object to for the context to work properly (see below).
