   Barb, I think you'd have to upload it to your site and link to it there.

      Upload it to my blog site? I guess that's what I'm asking... how do I do that in Wordpress? Do I need a plug-in?

      Yep, lots of plug-ins to convert the blog to pdf. Lorelle has an older post on including other documents like pdfs lorelle.wordpress.com/2007/02/10/wordpress-plugins-that-play-with-paper-and... but when I checked the links, most were no longer supported. In my Google search I found a couple but they were for WP prior to version 2.0. I am thinking that ftp is the best answer if you just want a link to a pdf file. If you want to embed a pdf that is an entirely different animal. Depending on your theme it might be a real bugaboo

   Hmm there's no reply option by your last post so I hope this notifies you.
   If your host has upload options I'd use that. I just tried uploading a pdf in wordpress as media and it showed it uploading but it doesn't seem to be there. I use ftp for most stuff. I haven't seen any plugins to help with that. But if your host has an upload manager use that and put it whereever you want then just link to it

   I use ftp to upload things like pdfs and put them in my wp-contents folder so they don't get overwritten during an update. I am not familiar with a plug_in that does that but I bet there is one. I am crazy busy getting ready for classes but I will look if I can squeeze out some time.

      I've looked quite a bit and haven't found a thing. I did find a plugin that will turn your posts into pdf files for people that might want to save them, but that's it. Should be easy with ftp though.

   Thank you both! I will put into WPContents and go from there.
