May 17, 2017 As a security measure, Joomla does not just arbitrarily allow any user to upload any file, there are checks in place to try and safely limit what kinds of files can be uploaded through the application since it cannot do an in-depth file scan like an offline scanner would to ensure you aren't uploading something malicious. First, you need to upload the PDF file (or other type of document file) to a folder in the Joomla Media Manager. In Joomla 3.0 and later versions, the Media Manager is found in the Joomla administrator - Content (menu) - Media. You will need to create a folder to contain your PDFs.
- Hello suzhung ,This is not a JA related issue But here is what you can try. You need to add your pdf files in media manager. I would suggest you to create separate folder for pdfs in the media manager and upload files in that.Now you will need a path for your pdf file, like http://www.yourdomain.com/images/yourpdffolder/yourpdfname.pdf Check if the path is correct by using it in the browser, if you dont get any error then the path is right. Then you will have to link some text in your article (from which visitor should be able to download the pdf) to the pdf url you have. For linking, you can refer to http://writenowdesign.com/images/joomla-how-to-tips/joomla-training-1.5.2.16.htmlIf you want, you can also refer to these urls :-
