hey guys which would be easier to make, a malicious docx or pdf?

Hey guys,

I know this is a bit strange but I am wondering which one would be easier to make. Here’s a bit of a back story.

I am currently making a malware analysis sandbox and to test it out I want to make a malicious document (controlled test). This will be something I will want to look into in the future after my current studies but I want to try to make a malicious document that is easy to detect, and hopefully a malicious document that is hard to detect.

Any help, resources or advice is welcome. This is purely for educational purposes. If you have a better idea than docx or pdf please let me know , it has to be a document of some form (like excel or powerpoint).

I am being blackmailed

I do not know what to do anymore. I need help. I don’t have the finances anymore. Please someone’s trying to blackmail me. This is draining me financially and mentally.

EDIT: Sorry for the lacking information.

Someone online got a hold of private files from me, because of my lack of security, and they’re now extorting money from me. I don’t have anything anymore please. I need help. They leaked their bank details to me, and screenshots. Those are the only things I have against them.
