Insert Word Document Link in Publisher

[Deano]

I need to add a disability access statement to my website. I've added a page
but cannot display a large enough font without it looking unbalanced so would
like to provide the facility to click on a .doc (ideally) or .pdf document
which can be opened and printed seperately. Not sure how to do this and where
the .doc file is saved to when published to the web. Appreciate some help if
possible?

To ensure everyone could open the file, make it a PDF file, i.e.,
disability_access_statement.pdf

Create a folder on the server, i.e., downloads

Upload disability_access_statement.pdf into the downloads folder.

Now edit your website and at a location on the page of your choice place
this statement:

Disability access Statement

Gather the phrase with your mouse and then select Insert, Hyperlink and type

/downloads/disability_access_statement.pdf
OK

Now upload the new website files and you are done.

Don - sorry for the delay in coming back to you but many thanks, I got it
sorted thanks to your help. I've manged to set it up so the document opens in
a seperate Explorer frame - I don't know why the PDF thing didn't work but
I'm quite happy with what I've ended up with for sure.

One of the key points also appears to be that the 'downloads' folder has to
be at the same level as the 'index_files' folder in order for it to work.

Once again - thanks for your help.
