Overview

You can upload PDFs to be linked in your pages. You can also select PDFs that have already been uploaded elsewhere on your site and link to them.

...

I'm uploading and linking to this Color Guide PDF. 


There are file size limits, usually 2 megabytes, so if the PDF doesn't upload, it may be too large.

...

I actually re-saved the original of this using Adobe Acrobat's "Save as Reduced Size PDF" option. 431kb is small enough. 


Click on your newly uploaded PDF and click "Select."

 


You'll see the url to the PDF.

5) Save your link.

 


It now appears in the document.

 


6) Save your document and test your link.

...

Your browser settings will determine whether the PDF appears in the browser or downloads automatically.

 


Inserting PDFs using the "File" icon

...

This takes you straight to your desktop to upload a file.

 


 


3) Select a file from your desktop.

 


4) Click save.

5) Save your document and test your link as before.

...

2) Using the instructions above for Inserting a PDF file via the link icon, or the one using the file button, upload a PDF.

 


3) Save the page as unpublished. Having a page, even if unpublished, tells Drupal that the file is permanent rather than temporary.

...

To remove PDFs and other files permanently, from the File Manager, select a File and click on delete. Or, follow my instructions here: How to delete files in Drupal 8 or Drupal 7
