So - for the avoidance of doubt (as M'learned Friends say), this problem was left unresolved, but not by me!

Yes - I did wonder why it was a 'Quick' reply.

Thus:

Ah, problem "Warning! The following errors must be corrected before your message can be posted:
The selected file was too large to upload. The server didn't allow the upload." It's 28.6 KB

Sorry - I may be being stupid, but I don't see an option to attach a file - only 'Add an image'

Thanks - I appreciate it.

Well I of course know not to use capitals and spaces in PagePlus page filenames, but the 'add hyperlink - file - browse your hard disk' procedure invites you to choose a Windows file which can have  them with no warning - are you saying this is a fatal error or just frowned on?

The file opens correctly in my Adobe Acrobat Reader (which is quite old) - I don't have the full version of Acrobat.
How do you explain that the file opens correctly from the PagePlus browser preview of the page?

Apologies - I thought 'I guess I shall have to convert them all to JPG's' implied resolved.

This is the page in question - but as you don't have the local file I can't see it is much help?

So I have a whole multi-page illustrated publication as a PDF, it is a really big file.

I call it using a hyperlink to the file, which for usual PDF's works fine - they open in some default (Windows?) PDF Reader.

So I set up this one like this, and Previewed in Chrome, and the Reader screen opened, a green 'loading' bar went from left to right at the top, and then the document displayed perfectly.

But when I Published the page and clicked on the hyperlink in Chrome the Reader window came up, the green bar flashed, and a pop up window appeared saying the file couldn't be read.

So it worked in the preview but not in the published page.

The same in Firefox and Edge (though the graphics varied).

And I tried putting it in a Document Frame - just the same.

Do you think there is a file size limitation somewhere? (I don't want to split the publication up if I can help it)

And a PS:

I found the purple colour scheme of the Audio Player meant the 'Play' arrow was virtually invisible, and wanted to change the colours - no obvious way to do it. But then I discovered that you can change the default Player, where you get a wide choice of skins - I chose 'Sunshine' which is really clear in yellow.

OK - panic over.

My mistake - I couldn't see the purple controls on the black background of the Player, it seems to work as expected and to have uploaded the file to the server,

I wish to incorporate some audio files in my web pages. I can insert 'Media' 'Audio Player' and this allows me to browse to an MP3 file on my PC. But unlike placing a YouTube video it does NOT offer me 'Link' or 'Embed', apparently I can only 'Link' to my PC?

This would work OK if I look at my web site on my PC, but surely anyone else, somewhere else, would not be able to connect to the file; doesn't it need to be embedded on my host's server?  I thought of importing the file into 'Asset Manager' , but apparently they are only Graphic and picture files?

Any assistance gratefully received.

Thanks - that works, sort of.

Unfortunately the document frame doesn't fill with the document, it just stays as when you are placing it, a box with the file name in, so it is difficult to size it correctly so the Windows? PDF reader fits; it looks disconcerting, and you can't remember what it is displaying. 'Refresh preview' button bottom right doesn't do anything. I guess I am going to have to convert them all to JPG's.

Can I insert or embed a PDF on a page? I have photos in PDF format.
