Re: [LegacyUG] .PDF versus .JPG

[Cathy]

PDFs can't be included in Legacy Reports, JPGs can

- though for Census images usually at an unreadable size unless you 
organise them so that you can add a Scrapbook to a Book in the 
Publishing Centre.

I don't know about including the PDFs in webpages. JPGs are 
straightforward - and when clicked can be readable as you can choose 
"original size" for the enlarged image - (you'd need to make sure 
that attached pics weren't bigger than necessary).

just too many .jpg subject titles to wade through.  Forgive me for repeating
what must have been asked and answered before.

Would anyone care to share their opinion of the advantage of attaching files
as .PDF rather than .JPG?  The example I'll use is a census page.  Why would
one rather attach a .PDF of a census page rather than a .JPG of the same
image?  The same question would apply to other images such as letters,
documents, etc.

Thanks again for responding to a question likely already answered but
missed.
