How do I embed a document?

You can embed a document into a blog post, discussion it forum, group note, or event. Using a similar process of copying and pasting an embed code that is used by popular video sites the same can be accomplished for documents.

Recommended document site is Docstoc.com. You will need to sign up for an account, upload the document to docstoc.

Step 1: Create an account on docstoc and upload the document(s) you want to embed to docstoc.

Step 2: After upload is complete, click on the Profile tab and scroll down to the "my documents" section, where you will see a complete list of your documents. Click on the document you want to display on TerpLink.

Step 3: From the "Document Display" page, you will find a button that says "embed this doc". Click on the button and you can copy and paste the embed code.

Step 4: You can change the width and height of the embedded document on TerpLink by adjusting the values in the "width" and "height" boxes.

Step 5: You can also choose whether to display "related documents", "other documents by this user" and "document statistics" at the bottom of your embedded document, by checking (or unchecking) those options.

Step 6: Copy the embed code to your blog or other entry in the place you want to the document to be viewed and publish.

Step 7: Check out the document on your blog.
