Hi Charles, Thank you for testing. I was aware that PDF text files could be stored in the file area and would open fine with Acrobat Reader et al. What I had never tried was using a PDF image. I could see no reason why it wouldn't work, and included the minor qualification for that reason. Ian has also confirmed that PDF images work fine.

Ron, To test this, I inserted a PDF file into the source detail using the "multimedia tab." When clicking on the image, the PDF file opened in Adobe Acrobat. I suspect that it will work for other PDF viewers as well.

Ian, Have you tried putting a PDF image in the file area? I haven’t, so I don’t know if it will work, I expect that it will when opened in your PDF Viewer in the same way as you view text. If you are asking does Legacy have its own PDF Reader then, as I am sure you know, the answer is , no it does not.
