OK. OLEObjects are notoriously difficult to work with. I have done some searching because it seems hard to believe this is not supported. This was my first attempt to use a Shell
command to copy the OLE and paste it to a known directory.
However, you can't copy/paste a PDF embedded object, which means you can't use a Shell
command to copy/paste it to a temporary folder/file path. So that won't work.
The consensus seems to be that this is not really possible; all you can do with embedded PDF is open them. See here and, here which referencing this PDF says:
See the "AxAcroPDFLib.AxAcroPDF" section under OLE Automation. Those are the only methods you have available to you from Reader
And also, here:
What you are doing relies on you knowing how to interact with the particular class which may be OK if you only have a couple of types and know what they are but in general, unless (a) the Class supports Automation and (b) you know the commands to issue this can't work.
The class does not really support the sort of automation you desire.
Possible Solution
Use Acrobat and WinAPI
If you have Acrobat installed, then I believe you may be able to do this possibly using WinAPI to get the hWnd of the Acrobat instance, and control it that way. I have perused some documentation, but I do not have Acrobat and so I am not able to test.
