How to Create a PDF and Retain Links. Having a PDF like a manual or brochure with no hyperlinks or ones that aren't functional may not be your complete vision of the document you want to distribute.

You can insert a PDF into Word via the File, Open menu, which turns the PDF into an editable document, or as a non-editable image.

Need to edit a PDF document but don’t want to pay for the more expensive Adobe editors? You can add text to and sign a PDF with just the free Reader program.
