adding pdf to post
« on: February 19, 2014, 11:46:27 PM »
Please excuse my ignorance but I can't figure out how to include a pdf (Marty Report)  I see the adobe button but not sure how or what should go in between the brackets.

Never tried it but here's a test.

Thinking you can just add it as a attachment???

                Seems to work.

                Guessing if you want to use the Adobe button you'd need to supply a ulr between the brackets as you would for a picture.

No problem, you can also consider converting the PDF to a jpg and posting that.  There is an online program to help with the conversion. I have done this before.

http://pdf2jpg.net/

Is one site to do the conversion.


You could also make a screenshot of the PDF.

Like most stuff in our digital world, there are several ways to accomplish the same thing, you just need to find the one that works the best for you.  ;)

Good luck...

Thanks guys I did end getting the attachment feature to work.  I didn't see the attachment in the preview so I didn't think it was working.
