I cannot embed any .ppt type file in word 2008. Each time I get the error saying that the selected file has been renamed or moved. Excel and word files embed OK. Pdf files are OK but only by selecting one page! I cannot find a way to embed the complete file.

Don't know what's up with embedding the PPT.

You can not embed "the whole" PDF -- it's based on pages, after all, and Word
is just presenting those pages to you as individual objects. You could (for
example) do page 1 to 15 in Word and 68 to the end in Word, and make a PDF.
Then insert your already created PDF as pages 16 to 67 later.
