Making a PDF File Publicly Available

 

I've consulted the Owner's Manual but haven't found how to do what I want to do or even if it is possible.?

I moderate a neighborhood association group (premium), and I'm trying to figure out how to make a PDF file publicly available.? Our Files section is only available to members, and individual files don't have options to override that unless I've missed something.? We have text items that are publicly available as sticky wikin pages, but the PDF file I want to make available to anyone is formatted for printing as a booklet and has photos as well as text, so simply copying it into a text file for the Wiki won't work. Is there a way to make a PDF file available to the general public?? If so, how can I do it?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Not on the site.? You'd have to store it somewhere, like Google Drive, and use a link on your group (wiki page?)

Lots of detailed information can be found in the Owners Manual and Members Manual.

As Duane suggests, you can make your wiki publicly available. But you'd have to put it somewhere else if it is a PDF. You can put images on a wiki, but not a PDF.

In theory, you could also put a link on your homepage but perhaps a bit messier. Again, a link to the document somewhere else.

(The wiki is available to premium groups and to older free groups who have it as a legacy feature.)

Thanks for your responses. Linking to a file elsewhere should work.? It is too bad there isn't a way to set permissions individually for files in the files section.

Just because it has photos there is no reason that a document couldn't be on the Wiki as essentially the same presentation/layout as the PDF.? I have done this in addition to linking to a PDF.
Granted it wouldn't be formatted to print as a booklet, if I "get" what you mean.
