This document will cover saving a PDF to the TechWiki site. Once a PDF is saved to the TechWiki, you will be able to access it with a URL.

Note: PDF contents are NOT indexed for either the TechWiki or the TechForum. If you want users to find your content, add that content to an actual wiki page of forum post and NOT as an attached PDF.

If you prefer video, here is a link to the YouTube video.
