HTMLHelp Forums _ Off Topic _ Where to host multiple page pdf file?

Posted by: ThreeRedheads Sep 24 2007, 08:21 AM

I am the newest of new and put the N in novice! Just a warning.

A friend sent me a 7 page pdf file to put on a myspace page to promote an upcoming event. It's a file that if you click an arrow, it takes you to the next page. I'd like to put it on the myspace page, but where would I host it and would it still have the option to click to subsequent pages?

I've googled this and even downloaded a converter, which converted it to word format. When I do that, it's individual pages.

I would appreciate any suggestions you may have!

Please see the FAQ entry http://www.htmlhelp.com/faq/html/docs.html#about-html

FWIW, when I've had to convert PDF documents to HTML documents, I've just copy-pasted the text into my editor and added HTML markup back by hand.

Thank you Darin.

Where can I put this pdf file so it's not just on my computer? For images, I put them on photobucket. Video- youtube. Slideshow- skyalbum. Not sure how I can do the same with this. Does that make any sense?

I put PDF documents on the same server as my HTML documents, images, style sheets, etc.

Any suggestions for a free or inexpensive server?

Don't know. But most free servers disallow hotlinking and file storage.

For reasonably priced hosting, I've heard good things about http://pair.com/ and http://order.1and1.com/, but I've never used either of them myself.
