Hi Adrian,
Can you share a link to that page that has the link to your PDF on it?

What do you mean by grayed out? My icons are grey in the resources also. Are you certain on the location that your importing to?

Hi Eric
Yes the pdf location is good as i have been able to upload it to the server . i think i might not be making myself clear , what i am trying to do is place a pdf on to a page on the website rather than just link to it . i don't know if it is possible as i have not found any examples or tutorials anywhere .
Thank you Eric
Maybe if this is not possible that's one to add to the wish list

Try using a html element and using this code.
<embed src="http://yourdomain.com/the.pdf" width="500" height="375" type='application/pdf'>
<object data="http://yourdomain.com/the.pdf" width="500" height="375" type="application/pdf">

Hi Eric
Yes you are on the right line now with that code i have managed to place the pdf on to the page . but the strange thing is the page appears 2 times . so i removed this part of the script <object data="http://yourdomain.com/the.pdf" width="500" height="375" type="application/pdf"> and that made it display once which was good but now i dont have the page responding to responsive size . instead the page stayed in the middle of a grey background . i mean only the html element is not responding
Regards Adrian
oh the "application/pdf " i have left as is is this right ?
