Inserting Attachment



It can sometimes be useful to publish documents containing large amounts of information as downloadable attachments instead of publishing the text on the website. An attachment can, for instance, be a price list in Excel format, large Word* documents, or information booklets in PDF format.

You can insert attachments in your website by using the Insert Hyperlink feature.

How to insert an attachment

  1. Highlight the text you want to link to the attachment.

  2. Click Insert Hyperlink.

  3. Click the search button.

  4. Click New.

  5. Locate the document you wish to insert as an attachment.

  6. Click OK.

  7. Highlight the document.

  8. Click OK.

The attachment is now linked to your specified sub-page and can be accessed by all visitors as soon as you have republished your website.

* Microsoft Excel®, Microsoft Word®.

Tip! You can inform visitors of the attachment format, so they know which application is needed to open the file. For instance: "Click here to download a PDF catalogue".
