  I have a pdx file that I would like to display in a post (it’s a “help wanted” poster for a job at the company where I work). I read the directions in the support info but all I end up with is a link that takes you to a doc on my computer (something I don’t want for a lot of reasons).

  Can it be displayed as a picture or is there another way to make it work?

  Thanks.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  PDX files are not supported

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/accepted-filetypes/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/scribd/

  You can convert the file to an accepted file type is about the only choice I see – Scribd has more file types but does not seem to support pdx files either.

  Thanks. I figured out another way that may work: print the file; scan it and then I can upload it as a photo.

  Thanks for checking in to it for me; it is appreciated.

  You be welcome

  Some graphics programs have the option of exporting a file as a jpg or other graphic file type – double check your export options – the print / scan thing looses a bit in the translation unless you have some good equipment.
