Family Whispering: I need tech help from an admin, please!
« on: December 13, 2013, 23:27:54 pm »
I had the publisher split the PDF into two pieces, but again when I tried to post the PDFs, the files are too large.  Can anyone help?

Not admin but while you wait, how big are they now? Are you still trying to attach both files in one post? Have you tried doing one PDF in the first post and then posting a reply to that thread with the second file attached to the reply?

I only put in one piece at a time, but the Intro, which is the first I tried, is 4,076 KB.  If no admin can help me, I'll ask the publisher to create a special link...I guess.

I guess if the file is still over the limit then a link would be better. Unless admin has other options of course.

thanks.  I've already emailed the publisher.  I won't get an answer until monday or Tuesday. Maybe they can somehow provide a link.

Melinda, I can try & split it into smaller pieces when I get into work next week.  I would need you to email me the files.  If you'd like me to try, I will PM you my email address.

Jaime, thanks for the kind offer.  Let's wait to see what the publisher says. I think it would be nicer if it was all in one place, but if they can't give me link, then I'd be thrilled if you tried.  I'm so eager to have you guys read the beginning!

Try this..... http://www.smallpdf.com

Great!  I just did it, and supposedly the files are now 1/4 of their original size.  I'll try again.
