Place the PDF in some folder and use the 'internal link' EZ page function to link to it.

Hi, thanks! I am not sure what you mean in "some folder"

Re: Attaching PDF file into EZ Page?

Somewhere on your site - I use a folder called /pdfs. Put your pdf files in there, then call them from an EZ page by entering in the Internal Link box, something like this:
**
/pdfs/uk071.pdf**

See http:/ /www.stevesh.org/demo and click on Field Dressing in the Imporatant Links sidebox.

Re: Attaching PDF file into EZ Page?

yes I mean to embed it so a customer can print it.

Or do you mean embedding the PDF into the page to view it?

I think you missed the point of the question. If you embed, that means the customer would see a smaller version of the PDF with, possibly, some text. Not embedded, the PDF would open when the ezpage is selected.

Depends how large his viewable site is. I would turn off the sideboxes for this page, then put this code on the EZ-Page..

<embed src="yourpdf.pdf" width="900" height="1000">

Set the sizes to suit.

or...

<embed src="yourpdf.pdf#toolbar=0&navpanes=0&scrollbar=0" width="900" height="1000">

..if you want a bigger viewable area with no toolbars and they need to right click to print.
