Is there any way that I can embed a .exe file in a .pdf, .doc, .xls, .ppt file, and on opening the containing file, the document processor will run the .exe automatically?
A:
In short, no. These file formats have no provision for embedding a Win32 PE executable inside of them.
For the Office files, you could use VBA to write a script that runs when the document is opened.

This is pretty easy to do with metasploit.

Yes, this is totally possible and pretty easy to accomplish. You can use one of the many Adobe Acrobat Exploits in the Metasploit framework. Next you can use a download+exec shellcode to download and execute your payload, err I mean ".exe".
