Today I scanned some Education related certificates that I would like to post on my Resume page. My question is…how do I publish them to the web? First I will take you through the steps of what I’ve done so far, and then hopefully someone out there can help me figure out what to do next.

I scanned my certificates and put them in a folder for professional development. I remember Alec saying in class that we would need to download CutePDF Writer, so I did that. Once it was installed I selected a file, went to the print option and selected cutePDF writer. I followed the steps it gave me until my derticficate became a PDF file. Now there is an option to publish my PDF file on the web, so I clicked on it and attempted to follow the stps it gave me untill I had to select a service provider to host my website. The only option I had was to publish through MSN….this is where my journey ended. How do I create a host to publish on? I want to publish these PDF files on the resume page of my blog, but I need some help getting there. Does anyone know the next step?

    Hi Jenna,
    In Wordpress or Edublogs, you can upload these files and they will be available to your blog. There are also hundreds of other ways to do this. Ask in class if you don’t get it before then.

    Hi Jenna,

    I have already posted PDF files right onto certain pages of my blog. Here’s how: Once you have saved or ‘printed’ your document into PDF mode, you go to your blog and ‘Write’ or ‘Manage’ PAGES (which ever you need to go in for your page). At the top of your writing page there is an option called ‘Add Media’, click on the icon that looks like a sun (add media) and then click ‘Choose Files to Upload’ from your computer. Find your PDF from the menu that opens and add it! Choose a title and then click insert to post. It will create a link from your title right onto your page. Hope that helps!
