Attachment Help >< Pretty Please

Post by DevilAngelWolf27 »

So I have two different patterns I'm trying to post .pdfs for, one I did for a Christmas Gift again, and also the Pattern Request for the Final Fantasy Bookmark viewtopic.php?f=15&t=15230 but every time I go to upload the .pdf the post just resets itself to blank. I know pictures upload just fine, it's just the .pdfs that are giving me an issue.

Help? :help:

Could it be the size that's an issue?

Also, maybe there's a fix in this thread? viewtopic.php?f=8&t=4668

Alrighty, here is a work around.
Open your PDF, and take a screen shot (Ctrl + Print Scrn).
Paste the screen shot into any graphic program, Microsoft Paint or the Mac equivalent. (Ctrl + V)
Crop out the window borders, menus, tabs, etc...
Save as a JPG or PNG.
Post that.

I feel so dumb, never even thought of that. I was able to reduce the size and got it to post, but I'm definitely going to keep this in mind for bigger projects. Thank you!

I do believe this was the issue, since when I was able to shrink it down it let me attach it. Thank you as well!

You people are awesome! :clap:
