I have a folder which I want to upload to my website, it contains PDF files
which I would like family to be able to download. I'm new to this and have
managed to get pics onto my site but not files. Can anyone talk me through
the process please and how to link the files to an icon on the webpage.

Have you created a Web /Site?..not just loose pages?

You'd import the pdf into a folder within your FP web/site. Then from =
any page within your web/site you create a link to the pdf file. If your =
viewer has Acrobat Reader installed on their machine it will open the =
pdf when they click on the link.

If you want to link it to an icon, after you place the icon on your =
page, right click on the icon and choose Hyperlink and browse to the pdf =
file within your web/site...then click ok.

Then Publish your web/site to the server.

If you want it to automatically dl without trying to open in the =
reader...just zip the pdf, that will force a dl.
