linking to pdf files on my pc.
Can someone walk me through linking a page to a pdf file so that the details of my pdf file shows on that web page I am creating.
I created a page with a text object, entered a title for the file to be linked and created the link to the pdf file on my computer.
When I preview the program the link showing at the bottom indicates that it is looking for a html formatted file and not my pdf format.

Your PDF will NOT show on the webpage.........
Offer it as a download by linking to it!!

You can not link to files on your computer. You must put the file on your server and link to them there.
Have a look at: http://midsouthmc.org/camp-schdule-and-registration-form.html
This a pdf file... but it lives on the server.
PDF can be shown in a webpage if you use the PDF widget to display them AND if your visitors have Acrobat Reader (which is free) installed on their PC.
I use this function and it works fine.
You can also use the link function, as suggested.
