Is there a decent way to insert a PDF page into a Word document, like into a
text box? ...that is, other than printing it out, scanning it into a
picture format?

Excellent. That was it!

But once inserted, the object forced its way into the upper right of the
document and can't be moved. There is no "Move" symbol; only the Resize
symbols.

It sounds like it is inserted In Line, indented. Right-click and change it
to one of the other wrapping options.

That did it. The other options sounded like they would mess everything up,
but I had enough options inside to make it work. Thanks.

Try this:

- On the Insert tab, choose Object (that's located within the Text group)
- Under document type, choose "Adobe Acrobat Document" (should be the first
item listed on the Create New tab)
- Browse to your PDF file, click Open
- The PDF will open for you. Close it.

You should now see the PDF page present in your Word doc.
