[Xerte] Re: Including a PDF document in a Xerte package

[Adam Read]

Or alternatively convert it to a flashpaper and embed it directly in the LO to make it look really slick: http://elearning.net.marjon.ac.uk/rlo/play.php?template_id=86

There may be a free converter but it will likely add adverts/logos over the pages. If you can find an old copy of Macromedia Contribute 2 I think it comes with that.

Hello,

Create a project
Highlight the project and select properties
On the popup window click "media and quota"
Use the upload button to upload the pdf
Close the pop up down
Edit the project
On a text page add in
<a target="_blank" href="media/NAME OF PDF">text for link</a>

That should work

Subject: [Xerte] Including a PDF document in a Xerte package

Hi Patrick,

I don't see with which kind of activity or how I can include a link to a PDF document and this link not to be an internet link but a link to the PDF inside the package created with Xerte.

The thing is that we are creating SCORMs which we want to work in "stand-alone" mode (I don't know if this is the right way to say it...) and don't need of any document or resource outside of the package....

I'm sorry I didn't read your previous answer since I wasn't correctly subscribed to the list.

Thank you very much!
