I posted a PDF "Dot Net From the Ground Up" which, on several attempts failed.

Finally I posted under a different topic "Try Again" and it got through.

That obviously was not how I wanted it to appear and someone has tidied it all up to show as I first intended - under a meaningful title.

My thanks to whoever did this.

It may be of interest that my end of things followed the following sequence:

The PDF was originally a Word Document.

I saved it to PDF and was given option of "Saving For Screen Display" which I took.

(This I subsequently found out saves about 5 KB)

The post failed.

I then re-generated the PDF using option "Screen Display or Print".

This was then accepted without problem.

Just use the edit button on your original post and modify it to what you would like it to be.

HTH,

Thanks Johan

Of course you are right. I should have done that.

But my point is that I did not know what caused the problem in the first place. It was a messy way of finding out that the original PDF was not acceptable and had to be re-generated.

That was me (of course).
