I work at a small public accounting firm and we save our supporting tax documents in PDF format. We primarily use the advanced commenting functions to mark up our workpapers. In Acrobat 6.0 Standard, there was a 'paste clipboard image' function that allowed us to paste summaries created in Excel to the PDF document. The function allowed the user to select the size and location of the object to be pasted by providing crosshairs that could be manipulated with the mouse. In Acrobat 8.0 Standard, I have been unable to locate the same function. We've found a 'paste stamp' function, but it does not work in the same manner. Is the 'paste clipboard image' function available in Acrobat 8.0 with the same functionality as 6.0? If so, please let me know where I can find it. Thanks!

The Paste Clipboard Image on the Advanced Commenting tool in Acrobat 6 is used to paste data from the clipboard as a Stamp comment. But only data copied from a PDF file can be pasted with this tool.
You have the exact same feature in later versions of Acrobat and it's even much better. In addition to pasting data copied from a PDF, you can paste virtually any data on the clipboard copied from any application.
Rather than use a tool, just press Command/CTRL + V to paste any data from the clipboard to the document page. This also works in Adobe Reader when files are enabled with Reader usage rights for commenting.
Like Acrobat 6, pasting data from the clipboard pastes the data as a stamp comment.

We are strictly concerned with pasting FROM Excel to Adobe Acrobat. We have used the 'paste clipboard image' function in Acrobat 6.0 and would like to continue doing so in Acrobat 8.0, rather than using the stamp function. Please advise if this is possible.
Thank you, Lisa
