I cannot embed a PDF file
-
I cannot embed a pdf. I upload it in the media section, but after that there is no way to embed it on the page.
help me please. -
Hi Mehregan,
you cannot embed PDFs like you would embed an image.
You can embed a jpg which looks like the PDF and then link it to the real PDF. So people who click on it will download the real PDF.
I hope that helped!
Best!

@mariusjopen thanks for your reply, but I'm not sure how to link the image to the PDF? like how do I get the real PDF link?
-
I mean the URL linked to the PDF doesn't work.

Hi Mehregan,
-
You upload the PDF into your Media library:
-
Then you click on the PDF and copy the url on the left:
-
Then you go the the gridder and place an image
-
Then you right-click on the image and add the url under LINK IMAGE:
I hope I could help!
Many wishes!
