RE: [LegacyUG] attaching .pdf files instead of photo

Pat,

Broadly speaking your procedure seems to be correct. Where the pdf file is 
does, of course, depend on where you have put it - which may not be in All 
Files, but as long as you find it in the panel on Legacy that doesn't 
matter.


If you cannot get it to work using sound then you may like to try using 
video as both/either should work. The picture of the sound icon only 
indicates that the pdf has not been recognised. If neither work (or in any 
event) you may like to try using FileFile MaintenanceCheck/Repair.


One last thought is that there could be a problem with the pdf, do you know 
how it was made (ie by which program) and does it open OK in Adobe Reader?

Subject: [LegacyUG] attaching .pdf files instead of photo

I am very confused.  I thought we were supposed to attach a .pdf file (as 
opposed to a picture) in Legacy in the following manner.

Save the .pdf to a folder.
In Legacy click on the picture iconclick on Sound
Browse to the folder that has the .pdf file
To find it, click on All files
Open it
Fill in Legacy caption info etc.
click OK


It displays a picture that says Sound!!
So how do I vision the .pdf??

Am I utterly confused?
