    I have written a Ms word document where I have included an wav file. When I am converting this file into
    pdf format, I am unable to get the sound. How to solve?

                                                                                  thanks

      Actually you can. I know in Adobe Acrobat Pro there is a Multimedia option. I haven't played with it much, but I know it is there. 
      Don't forget to give thanks if I was able to help ya! Please?

      Pretty bold statement from someone who hasn't played with it much... ::)

          It's Adobe Acrobat. I don't think there's a free version of that. Then again, I have no idea what program devduttaa is using....

          Might help a bit if we knew so we could look into it. PDF does support it, but does his converter?


          Side thought: It's annoying enough when a web page starts talking to me, but if my BOOK wants to start a conversation? I'm gonna jump off a cliff....  :||

          If it was just a few pages and if the PDF options were not needed, like zoom, copy etc. In that case one would just convert the thing into a nice little show in SWF format. Takes, maybe, more file size, but you can have audio like in a power point presentation. The user could only go to the next or back to the start or quit. 8)
