Include embedded audio when converting MS Word 2007 to PDF

I have embedded audio clips in my MS Word 2007 document - When I export to PDF (using Word's built-in Save As option) the audio clips don't make it into the PDF - i.e., they just show as icons in the PDF file, with no ability to play them.

Seeking any Office-to-PDF advice/software that will allow the embedded audio clips to survive the trip.

Thanks in advance, all.

My Product Information:
Reader 9.0, Windows

Hi,

I dont think you are able to as you only have Reader i'm afraid. Acrobat Standard and above gives you PDFMaker that enables this to make it through conversion. There could be something else out there that could work but the save as option wont work from word.

As smitchell15 mentions, you'll need to use Acrobat to create your PDF and not the Save As option from Microsoft in order for the video to convert.
