Is there a way to post more than the four in one file that seems to be the limit? Say is there a way to combine 10 or 12 into one file, maybe a PDF? I have some old Sales brochures I'd like to upload but don't want to overload the forum if that is a problem. Maybe is a posting site that could be used and a link put in an email? Any suggestions welcome! Ken in NY
You could create & share a folder in your Google Drive. Then post a link to either the folder or individual files in the folder. This is basically what I've ended up doing in my thread here HeavyEquipmentForums
This is 12 pages from a service manual that I have in .pdf format. When you click on it, it will automatically download of your browser. There is another way to do it if you only have a printed brochure. I don't know what the size in KBs limit to post in a thread is. To view them you need to have a .pdf viewer installed in your computer. I don't how to view it with a phone. I simply extracted them with Acrobat DC and saved as a separate file.
This is the same .pdf manual converted to .JPEG. The HEF server has 4 page limit it seems.
These are the same pages after I converted the .pdfs to .jpgs and then combined them. There may be a server size limit for a single .JPG image like this one.
Ken; I think you could copy the pages of your brochures with a scanner and save the scans as a .JPEGs. Then use an online .JPG combiner like I did.
Sound like an idea, do you have a link to the "combiner" you used? Also any recommendation on the resolution for the scans?
I used this one ---> https://www.filesmerge.com/merge-jpg I use an HP Envy 6000 printer with the default setting for scanning. I never gave any thought about changing it. You could scan a page and then view it. If it looks as good as the page in the brochure, that is as good as it will get. IMHO of course.
Thanks, I'll give that one a try!
Good day With a mac if you open a PDF file in finder with the "Thumnail" option you can join additional PDF files by simply dragging those into the last thumbnail & save. If you do not have a Mac download "Master PDF Editor" I can recommend that one but do not click on update as you will get charged for it. Kind regards Uffex
Hey! NO ONE wants to see you in your undies!
I looked at the Master PDF Editor website. Is the watermark that the free version inserts very noticeable ?
Good day Tinkerer I have used the subscribed version for some time, initially the free version is good to try and see if it suits your needs. I have never published one of the free PDF's, so I'm not sure how visible the watermark is. If you make use of a Linux distro there is so much free software, I guess there will be a completely free application to do what you need. Kind regards Uffex
Good day As an experiment I have opened Libre Office (Free office package) made a simple presentation of Zorin and simply exported this in PDF format. It has only taken a few moments, the Zorin platform runs without virus protection - updates are free of charge. The software included is comprehensive, in fact I have removed a lot of programs I will never use. You can download a free version and run it from a memory stick a little slow maybe but easy to try, and why not it costs nothing.
