Subject:RE: Importing Multiple Page PDFs into a Word doc From:"Dan Goldstein" <DGoldstein -at- riverainmedical -dot- com> To:<techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Mon, 18 Jan 2010 16:47:58 -0500
Fast but kludgy:
1. In Acrobat, save in any graphic format. Acrobat saves each page as a
separate graphic file.
2. In Word: Insert => Picture => From File. Select the whole collection
at once, using the Shift key.
I wouldn't send the results to customers, but they're good enough for a
draft review.
