All you have to do is upload the pdf file to your hosting account. For example, lets say your domain name is http://www.0002sss.com the directory where you uploaded your pdf file will now be http://www.0002sss.com/example.pdf now ad the code below to the page of your website where you want the pdf file to appear... <a href="http://www.0002sss.com/example.pdf"><FONT style="FONT-SIZE: 11px" face=tahoma color=#000000>My pdf file</a></font> Hope that helps, |

After you have uploaded the pdf file and have the new address, just add the code below with your own link to the page of your website where you want the pdf link to appear, then if a visitor to your website clicks the link, they will automatically be able to download your pdf file to their computer. <a href="http://www.0002sss.com/example.pdf"><FONT style="FONT-SIZE: 11px" face=tahoma color=#000000>My pdf file</a></font> |
