Can one attach other file types, such as doc, xls, to a pdf file using LO? If so, can someone point to the documentation describing the process? Thanks.
With LibreOffice you can create a hybrid PDF/ODF; a PDF with the source ODF file attached.
If your source document is a .doc
file, for example, and you create one hybrid PDF/ODF, LibreOffice will open and edit the source file as an ODF through the PDF Import feature, but you will not be able to extract the source as .doc
.
That is, even if the source file was a .doc
(or .xls
, etc.), the source will be saved as ODF and editable in LibreOffice.
To attach Microsoft Office documents (and other types), you would have to use tools from Adobe’s Acrobat – see this blog entry, or other tools, such as PDFill.
Ok. Thanks for clarifying that for me.
