Position the cursor where you want to insert text that describes the Excel file or informs viewer to click and open it. Click “Tools,” then “Typewriter” on the menu bar. Scroll down to the point in the PDF document where you want to create a link to open the spreadsheet file in Excel.
To create a link to file you embed in a PDF, you have to be a little creative. However, the standard link tool in Acrobat does not allow you to create a link to an embedded. Adobe Acrobat also lets you embed many file types into the PDF document itself, solving the problem posed by the reader not already having the Excel file on his computer. However, if you send the PDF to someone else, chances are that he does not have the same Excel file in the same folder on his computer. Acrobat makes it relatively easy to create a link to a file on your hard drive, and using the link to open a file in Excel works well – as long as you don’t move the file and its location remains constant. When creating PDFs for analysis, training or other business purposes, you might want to refer readers to an Excel file that offers detailed data or information better suited to a spreadsheet. Adobe Acrobat enables businesses to create PDF documents that users can view on almost any computing platform and with virtually any operating system.
