To add a document to the Documents module, first make sure your document is saved somewhere you can access it (your My Documents folder, for example). In order to ensure accessibility, it's a very good idea to save most document types as pdf files. This can be done by "printing" the document to the Adobe PDF "printer" listed in your printers. Users will not be able to open Office 2007 documents inside of your web site and will be prompted to save them. If the user does not have Office 2007, they will not be able to open the documents at all! PowerPoint presentations can be saved as PowerPoint shows (.ppsx), which will eliminate the need for the user to have PowerPoint 2007 installed on their computer.

To add a document to the module:

• Click the Add New Document link
• Type a title for the document.
• The description and category are optional, depending on whether your Documents module is set to show them (in the module Settings).
• Assuming that your document is not on a remote web site, set the Link Type to File.
• To upload your document, click on Upload New File under Link.
• Click the Browse button, browse to, and select your document. Then click Open.
• Click Upload Selected File to complete the operation.

   2. If the image you want is already in your My Pictures folder (or somewhere else you can get to it) you can upload it when you place it on the page. Or,
   3. Go to the Internet, find an image you want, and save it to your My Pictures folder. You will be able to upload it when you place it on your page.
2. The best container for images is the Text/HTML module. Add one to your web page. If desired, you may hide the module's container (the title bar and border) by unchecking Display Container in the module's Page Setings. Click on View Mode to see the effect.
3. Click Edit Text to edit the module's content.
4. Click on the Insert Image button (the icon looks like hills and a sun).

10. Click the image in the Image Gallery window. You’ll be taken back to the Image Properties window.
11. Enter a description of the image in the Alternative Text textbox.
12. You may need to adjust the dimensions of your image. You can do this by entering a number in either the height or width textbox. The other dimension will be set automatically.
13. Click OK to add the image to the module.
14. To edit an existing image, enter the Edit Text mode, click the image, then click the Insert Image button.

Handling Office 2007 documents can cause many unexpected problems. The Documents module will link to docx files, however they will have to be saved by the user before they can be opened. Links to docx files in Text/HTML modules will not work at all.

The safest solution to the problem is to convert Word 2007 documents to a pdf file. You can do this by choosing File, Print, then selecting either Adobe PDF or PDFCreator as your printer. Save the pdf file to your My Documents folder then upload it to your site and link to it.
