  How can I upload a pdf so it can be seen in the blog post?
  I see a bunch of videos on-line that show me how to add a plug in so I can actually view my PDF into a blog post but I cannot figure out how to add this plug in?

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

  Hi there!

  It is not possible to install plugins on WordPress.com, for security reasons. Plugins can only be installed on self-hosted WordPress blogs. If you are wondering how WordPress.com differs from WordPress.org, this support article explains the distinction:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  It sounds like you might be interested in our Scribd functionality. You can read more about how to set that up here:

  Let me know if I can answer any other questions!

  Holy Cow!

  This is exactly what I needed. THANK YOU for explaining the wordpress.comvs word press.org (I had not idea) and explaining how to use the Scribd site. You are amazing.
