How To Paper?

[Soon2BV]

I have a short installation paper on converting from standard exhaust flappers to Stainless Steel.

How is the best way to add it? As a pdf it is about 300 MB.

Attachments

Depending on where in the community you are posting your message at, you may be able to upload attachments to your message. There are two types of uploaders available: the default uploader and the flash uploader.

Default Uploader

The default uploader allows you to upload attachments one at a time. To begin, press the button. A box will appear for you to select the file on your computer that you want to attach. Select the file you want to upload.

If you change your mind, you can press the button and then choose a different file.

Once you have selected the file you want, press Attach the file.

If there are any errors uploading the file, you will receive an error message, otherwise, you will see the attachment appear.

Flash Uploader

You can enable the flash uploader from your settings menu. When enabled, you will be able to easily upload more than one file at a time.

To start, press Click to Attach Files. A box will appear for you to select the file or files on your computer that you want to attach. Select the file or files you want to upload. You can select more than one file at a time by holding Ctrl (on Windows) or Command (on Mac) and click on the files.

Once you have selected your files and clicked "Open", they will begin uploading. If there are any errors uploading the files, you will receive an error message, otherwise, you will see the attachments appear.

Managing Attachments

Regardless of which uploader you use, once the files are uploaded you will see them on your screen. By default, all attachments are added to the bottom of your message, however, you can add any attachment to a particular section of your post by pressing the "Add to Post" link.

If you wish to remove an attachment and have it not appear in your post, simply press the "Delete" link.

If the paper is over 150 MB, what options do I have?

Do I need to move my membership to a higher level?

150 mb huh, time to do some copy -> paste special -> jpeg action to those pictures to get it to a reasonable size.

Oops - typo / it was 150K and I finally got it to about 140.

If you can copy the text, you can just paste that over into the DIY section & submit it as a new article. It will need to be approved, but if you let me know that you've done it I can take a look at it. That would probably be the best place for it.
