    PDF in the catalog

    In the products area, can you attach a PDF file? If so how, I have been unable to discern anything from the help files within Actinic.

    You can hard code a link to the pdf file within the product description area using embedded html and the !!< >!! markers to tell actinic to process as html.

      Great Answer but....

      How do I do this as that is something that I have never attempted to do.

        It's not too difficult to do, within Actinic the !!< and >!! operators around any text used tell Actinic to treat it as HTML. therefore adding for example the following code !!<<a href="http://www.your.site/pdfdirectory/nameofpdf.pdf">view pdf </a>>!! puts a hyperlink to your pdf. Changing the values to suit your site, obviously ;-)

        HTH, others feel free to correct me if I'm mistaken!

          A simple way i found to do it was to upload my pdf files to my actinic image folder. Then click on the product i wanted my pdf link to appear under and goto the "links" tab in actinic, now you can write what you want the pdf link to display and browse for your pdf file in your actinic folder.
