    Embeding audio in a pdf file? I would like to see how that can be done too!

    The only suggestion I can offer you at this moment in time is to include a link in the e-book to an online spot where your customers can listen to it. Or include the audio as an mp3 in a zip file with the e-book.

      Just put a link from the book to the interview on your site.. or you can get it hosted free if you don't have a website.

    You'll first need an application that can inbed the audio links. Embeding the full file isn't a good idea, and I'm not sure that's even possible. Off the top of my head, the only app that's good for this is Adobe Acrobat.

    Break the audio into short segments, then upload them to your server. The idea is to have the "Play" links in your PDF stream from the audio files on your server.

    Adobe's website has some instructions to do this and the process might be the same with other apps. Not sure.

    Hm, you're a little unclear about how you want to "transfer" it, do you just want someone to transcribe it? If so, you can find many people who will do so at elance.com o getafreelancer.com.

    The embedding audio thing I have no idea sorry, but sounds a good idea to look into!

    Completing above suggestion, I prefer to bold my solution offer to you. Beside embedding audio files; a better way is creating transcript of the interview. Some people don't like hear audio in learning. IMHO.
