Adding Audio to PDF

XFactor · 11-11-2009, 07:43 PM

I use openoffice.org to create my Ebook.

I'd now like to update the book by adding some audio clips at the
end of each chapter.

Should I invest into a software program that can do this easily, or
am I just missing something in openoffice.org with this function.

Hey John,

Not sure about openoffice but I do know that Adobe Acrobat can insert multimedia files - sound and video - into the PDF.

The potential issue is that it can make your PDF VERY large ;-)

You can do it with OpenOffice. I forget how at the moment.

It's better to host the files on the web and just link to them. Makes the .pdf much smaller.

Hi XFactor.
These official Adobe links could be helpful:

but you could also check existing warrior`s post:
