PDF file

How do I insert a pdf file onto my web site. I have the document saved on a
memory stick that I can't seem to save in the right place. I tried to save it
as an image file first, but that won't work. I tried importing it directly
from the memory stick, but that doesn't work. I'm tyring to make a hyperlink
and it looks like it is working (link is underlined) but when I click on it,
nothing happens.

With the site open in FP, drag and drop the PDF into you site, then create a hyperlink to it like
you would to a page.

Hi Martcity,

If you are trying to work with PDF, first copy your same PDF file into
website.
(you may import same, only make sure that same file is availble in folder
list of FrontPage).

After this there are no of ways how you show your PDF file to users.

1) Insert -> Web components -> Advanced Controls -> Plug In
On Plug In Properties
Click on Browse and select same PDF file which you imported already in same
web
Save Document and Preview in Browser.

Second Method
Create a new page and drag same pdf file from folder list to page.
It will automatically create a hyperlink for same file.
Preview in Browser.
when you will click on hyperlink you will see that PDF viewer will be
automatically start and it will show you same PDF file.

Try this and let me know if it helps or not.

Regards,

You link to it, don't insert it.

Import the file into your web. Go to Insert > Hyperlink and create a link
to the file.

Publish both the PDF and HTML file. CLick the link, it will open in the
Adobe reader.
