Embedding PDF file into Excel

Hi everyone, I've got a slight issue with embedding a PDF file into my Excel sheet. I tried already Insert > Object but it won't allow me to add the PDF file. There are limited options there (3 types of Word documents and that's it). I'd appreciate any help, thanks!

  • Wouldn't it help if you first change the various files into the possible format to be included (one of the three formats you mentioned) and then embed them?

    I'm sorry, but I can't offer you more than that, a specialist would have to take care of the problem, maybe someone else can be found πŸ™‚

    Sorry that I took your time and couldn't give you a quick solution.

    Wish you a nice day.

      Thank you NikolinoDE, I appreciate it :)! πŸ™‚Unfortunately, I've tried those available Excel support solutions and it's not working in my case - not sure why :(.😞

       

      The thing is when I try to embed an object I should be able to choose from different file types and there are only 3 types of Word docs. Even when I try to embed the object from the file, an alert shows that the object cannot be embedded. My version is in Polish :D. I'll attach some screenshots so you can see the issue.
