how to attach pdf

[Monteverdi]

I tried to attach PDF files to a post which according to your help site should work but it does not at all, no issues with jpg

Maybe the file size is too large. Pretty sure there is a size limit for pdfs.

Just drag and drop it in the edit box.
Or, as jeff said. 🙂

10kB, and it works if converted to a jpg

if I drag the PDF in the box it tells me not supported format but jpg works

PDF's do work, something might be wrong with the file itself.
You could test with another PDF.

I think 10Kb is a too small file size for a normal PDF, even if almost empty.

You could just print/screen it and paste it into your post.

Dragging the .pdf file into the edit box attaches the file.

Clicking Attach Files and uploading the .pdf also attaches the file.

Personally, I prefer screen shots over .pdf files. I can click and view a screen shot faster than I can download and view a .pdf file. But the forum supports both. If it doesn't work for you, try a different browser. FWIW I'm on Safari (Mac).

Perhaps you could compress (*.zip) the file and attach that. We could try it ourselves to see if it's a forum related issue, not that I'm aware of an issue at this time.
