Default link to another document

If you have Acrobat, then you could save your document as PDF and use
Acrobat to combine it with the PDFs then print the resulting pdf to fax
from Acrobat.

Thanks for the info!

Basically I got a networked copy machine that I can use as a fax
machine from my pc. Many times I and other users where I work create
ms word documents that we need to fax but they reference enclosures
(usually pdfs). I was trying to figure out a way to fax everything
from Microsoft Word.

If you insert a PDF as an object it will shrink to the current
margins hence the deterioration. Set the layout property of the
object to something other than in-line with text and change the
size to full size before centreing it on the page. Note that objects
cannot span pages so only the first page of a multi-page PDF would
show.
You cannot print linked items that are not displayed in the
document. You would have to print the linked PDF separately.

I am using Word 2003. When I insert a pdf as an object in my MS
Word document the pdf shows but the quality is bad. But if I can
somehow get the inserted links to print automatically that would be
best.

Yes. If the pdf displays within the Word document, it will print
out when the document is printed. I've verified that this works in
Word 2007 in Vista. I'm not sure about earlier versions of Word in
other versions of Windows.

In Microsoft Word if I insert a link to another document, lets say
a pdf, is
it possible when I print the word document that the pdf document
prints out
as well.
