    Inserting a PDF file into Powerpoint
    Hello,

    Does anyone know how I can insert a pdf file into powerpoint so that I can email it and open it from another computer?

    I've tried using Insert > Object but when I open it on another computer, it says the Source File cannot be found.

    Thank you!

    Also how can I insert one powerpoint in another so I can open it on another computer?

    Why would you want to put a PDF or Powerpoint within a Powerpoint?

    In Powerpoint, go to Insert->Object; select Create from File..., pick the file, then make sure Link is unchecked. That should insert the file itself.
