Importing .pdf documents

[dragonfrog]

My website is mainly an information site and therefore, there are a lot of my documents that are in pdf format. I want to be able to have a link on the website to each of these documents. I am new to this sort of thing and am lost as to how to do it.

I don't want to type each as a new document on a page that is then printed by the person viewing my site. I want them to have a nice looking pdf document.

Thanks,
Steve

Make a folder on your web host for your pdf files. Ftp your files to that folder.
Make a link to each file on your website. All done.

Naturally your readers will need Adobe. You may want to do the common deal and make mention of that and a link to get Adobe reader.

Thanks Dave, but I was referring to how is it done within WebEasy 7?

But that's OK, I figured out how to do it.

Here is a good FAQ on including PDF files in WebEasy.

So was I. What did you wind up doing... for the benefit of others?

Steve:

What I did was create a folder in the Web Easy/Documents called PDF Files. I copied all of my PDF files into that folder. I then created a link(s) on the page that pointed to each of the PDF files. In my case, they are press releases.

For instance:

Press Release #1 was the PDF. The link would be set up as a "File" type. Whenever someone clicks on that link it goes right to that particular PDF File.

Hopes that helps.
