Word 2008: PDF as icon?

A

Hi all,

I've a quite particular issue with Word:mac 2008: I have to attach to
a document a PDF file as icon. I go into Insert -> Object -> From File
and I select my .pdf using the check on "Display as icon". After
clicking "Ok" I get a window where I have to choose the page I want to
insert and then it doesn't put the icon, but it copies the page in the
Word document as image!

Does anyone have a clue? I want it displayed as an icon.

Thanks and regards.

Sorry: Word 2008 can insert only Office files as icons.

Use Help>Send feedback to tell Microsoft you would like that changed in the
next version :)

Hope this helps
