How do I add images to my mail merge in Word using the Acrobat Pro Merge feature?

New Here ,

I am a pc user.  I have a word document that has text and images. I have an excel file with all of the data information. If I hit the merge button in Word, everything works and I can see the correct pictures. When I hit the merge to Adobe PDF, I get an error message only in the spot of the pictures that says The linked image cannot be displayed, everything else populates as it should. I need to use the Adobe PDF button so that it saves each file individually then I can get electronic signatures from my customers. The code that I used in word that works for the word only merge is: { INCLUDEPICTURE { IF TRUE{ MERGEFIELD(INSERT FIELD NAME HERE) } } \D}

What do I need to change to get the images to show when I use the Adobe PDF button?

I don't believe that's possible with the Mail Merge function of the PDFMaker plugin for Office.

It is possible using a custom-made tool, like this (paid-for) tool I've developed, that allows you to specify the path of an image file for a button field, and it then imports it and displays it on the page: https://www.try67.com/tool/acrobat-mail-merge-and-email-pdf-files
