Default Importing PDF files into word

I think this is where accessibility dies. Best to convert to text.

Provided the PDF is less than 1 page long and you have at least version 7
of Adobe Reader installed, you can insert a PDF file as an object in Word.
It does however tend to make rather large document files. Insert Object
Create From File. It's been a while, but I think this should work in

Word 97.

I want to import short PDF files into Word just like I import
pictures. I realize that I cannot edit the PDF files; I just want the
reader
to see them. For example, sometimes I want to include a short
newspaper article procuced as a PDF so my reader can view it within
the Word document.
I am using XP with an older version of Word (I think it is Word 97).

Thanx in advance.
