  I need to create a gallery of images but can’t seem to do so on wordpress.com.

  The images I have are all PDFs and are saved as one document. Every time I tried to add the PDF image to a post it makes it into a hyperlink (and one that I couldn’t even open).

  I also tried the advice on http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/gallery/, but I never seemed to be shown the ‘gallery’ options or anything from there. Instead I was offered to insert it into the post, whereby it show as a hyperlink.

  My blog is http://www.speakingbeauty.wordpress.com and any help would be much appreciated.

  Many thanks,

  Chiara

  When you upload a PDF and insert it into a post, only a download link is shown. PDFs cannot be included in galleries. If you want to actually embed the PDF, you’ll need to use a service like Scribd or Google Docs.

  Embed From Google Docs

  Thanks so much.

  I have now successfully embedded the PDF but I am unsure where to put the code on my blog now?
