Is there a way to attach/view an Excel, or Word page on a Pdf in the same or similar manner as you would viewing the text in a sticky note or text note at the cursor in Adobe Reader or Acrobat?

    Hello Nkmaer,

    You can use the Attach File commenting tool (available under the Comment panel on the right) to attach files to the PDF. Double-clicking the paper-clip icon of the attachments you created will launch the file in its native application.

    If a PDF has been appropriate "Reader Enabled" by Acrobat then using Adobe Reader you can "Attach a File as a Comment" or "Attach a File" or else Adobe Reader provides no "attach" capability.

    With Adobe Acrobat, you can insert a graphic into the page and then can place a link next to it, or on top of it.

    Hope this information helps, feel free to update this discussion for any further assistance.

    Thanks,

    Anand Sri.

    In the full version of Acrobat, yes. In the free Acrobat Reader, no.
