adding word processing documents to a blog
-
Does anyone know if/how I can add a word processing link to my blog page?

A word processing link? You can upload a .doc file in the Upload box just below the Write Post box, same as you’d upload an image.

i’ve been trying to do that but the upload only allows me to add a downloadable link to my blog. if i want the .doc to show up in the body of a page is there anyway to do this?

No there is not. You would have to copy and paste it into a post. And if you are using MS Word, be aware of the following:
There are known issues when trying to paste text from MS Word. If you are using the rich text editor then there is a special icon on the advanced tool bar which when clicked brings up a window where you can paste the text from Word and then insert it into your post. MS Word adds a bunch of extra code that can cause problems, and using this function in the rich text editor will clean things up and paste it as plain text.
Alternately you can paste the text from word into a text editor such as Notepad or Textedit (mac) first and then copy that text and paste it into your post.
