Can somepne explain to me how to post PDF files in postings here on the board? I have three used oil analysis and would rather post the Blackstone PDF than retyping all that info.
Thanks!!

Typically your ISP gives you some web space. Inquire with them on their website on how to upload a file. Then link to it your post.
 
Once when I was ranting and raving about pdf's, my son directed me to the unexplained T in the tool bar at the top. Click on it. Then select the text you want to copy. Once selected, you can copy it as any other selected text and paste it into anything you want to.

To post it here without the format getting scrambled, scroll down to the explanation of code. Sometimes I am able to make it work.

Let me add, those that post used oil analysis are a valuable resource to the rest of us. Thank you.

The problem using posting the information with a link is the information will be lost if the person who makes the post doesn't maintain the link.

This is already happening to some UOA information.

That is a good point. That is why typing out the info is really the best way to do things, that way two years down the road the info is not lost if the original file is no longer on it's server.
