Hello,

I need to send a report for my job and I have to include an attachment which is a Word document. However, the report will be sent to someone who does not have access to our network and therefore does not have access to the partition where the document is stored. How can I insert the Word document into PowerPoint so that a third party can read the document without having the file on their PC?

Thank you very much in advance

(I hope I was clear enough, sorry if not)

    Hello,

    You can embed your Word file into your slide: Insert => Object => Existing Object.

    If you can't find it, please specify your version.

      Hello,

      Thank you for your response. However, I have already tried this manipulation and as soon as I save the PowerPoint as a PDF, the Word file "freezes" and I no longer have access to the document when I click on it.

      oh well, but you’re not saying everything! You didn’t mention PDF... You only talked about PowerPoint and Word.
      To insert an attachment in a PDF, you need the full version of Acrobat.
