Insert a PDF into a topic

When working in the Oxygen-based editor, you can insert PDF files the same way you insert images into your documents.

Tips and tricks

  • If you haven't added the PDF to Inspire yet, follow the steps in Import an image.
  • After inserting a PDF file, you only see the first page of the PDF.
  • After you open a component in Oxygen, Inspire remembers the folder where it's stored. When you want to open another file or insert another PDF, the Select Component screen shows you the last folder you used.

  1. From the top menu click Components.
  2. In the Folders pane, open the folder that contains the document you want to add an image to.
  3. In the Components pane, select the document, right-click it, and then select Edit...
  4. In the editor, put your cursor where you want to insert the PDF, and then from the toolbar select Oxygen_ImageRefthe insert picture icon.
  5. On the Select Component dialog, in Folders, navigate to the PDF file you want to insert, select the file, and then click Select.
