heard to utter:
Go to Insert Object Create from File and browse to your PDF.
Publisher will display the PDF page.

Depending on your version of Acrobat Reader and Publisher, I believe.

Rob Giordano (Crash) was very
recently heard to utter:
Why do you need to drop the pdf into pub though? Do you then create an
layout around the pdf?

If you are creating a newspaper in Publisher, and someone sends you an
advertisement to include on one page in PDF format, you will want to drop
the PDF file onto the Publisher page in the appropriate place.

I tried it as insert object...with one file it inserted fine and was
resizable, on another file it refused to display except as a pdf icon.

That's way cool.

Question: the inserted PDF object, is it a bitmap version of the PDF
file or a vector object?

AFAIK, it's not really either one. I believe it's essentially an instance of
Adobe Reader open within Publisher. I could be wrong though. I believe that
is how all OLE objects work. If you didn't have Acrobat/Reader on your
system, I don't think you will see a PDF when you attempt to OLE because the
Adobe app is added to the OLE dialog when it's installed.
