Copying PDF into Word

E

Edwin O'Brien

I am unsuccesffuly trying to copy a multipage PDF file into Word. The PDF
file is mixed text and pictures. If I just use copy after selecting all, it
just copies the text. If I use insert picture, it just copies the first
page of the file. Is there a way that I can get it to copy all of the pages
as a picture?

If all you want to do is insert the entire page as an uneditable image,
another idea would be to have the Standard/Full/Pro version (not just
Reader) and save the PDF as a set of .jpg images which can be inserted a
page at a time. This works very well and looks excellent even for text.

There's a free utility that will split the pdf to let you do that, though I
haven't tried it myself.

Thanks for the heads up on that utility. I'll have to try it out. It
appears that it will be very helpful at home where I do not have the full
version of Acrobat.

I do use the same person's CocoaBooklet for booklets, and that works great.
