How to add a PDF File to a website

[markmets415 524]

Is there anyone here that can help me add a pdf file (membership application) to our website so when viewing the site a prospective member can click on a link and the application displays (with acrobat) on their computer and they can print it out. I have tried a few things but I can't seem to get it to work.

Thanking you in advance,

Mark

Should be able to upload it to your webserver and link to the file like any other page/file.

Like OoO said, can't you just upload the file to the server for your site, and then when people go to click on a link it would look like "http://www.wassaicfirerescue.com/Application.pdf"

when i try to save it exactly how you have it Nate for some reason word won't accept it, i am ready to throw in the towel, is there a way I can send it to you in an email to see if it opens correctly????

How do you manage your Company's website? Do you use any particular web developer, or FTP?

Link worked for me.

I'm no web designer but now that you've gotten the file embedded in the page, you should be able to wrap the link in code tags,

your text [/url ] the same as in your signature, like this:

[url=https://share.acrobat.com/adc/document.do?docid=d9542786-86fb-4d11-b26a-84ded2076284]Membership Application[/url]

Link worked for me.

Does it load in adobe and can you print it??

[OoO 24]

It opened in a flash viewer, but wouldn't let me print.

This should work for you:

Upload the PDF to www.localhostr.com and then you can link to the file using the link they provide. You probably will want to check periodically that the link still works, as it could be removed after a period of time.

THANK YOU, this worked perfectly, loads and prints fine.
