Hello i have a site ev-parts.com

I would like to upload .pdf files to some products. How can i do that?

I have oscommerce v2.3.3, should i use some plugin or what?

It's unclear to me what you want to do. If you want to sell a product as a pdf file that is completely different than having a regular product show a pdf file. Assuming the latter, the pdf datasheet may do what you want.

I want to add (upload) my own pdf files to product description, so customers can open or download a pdf file and read more about the project.

Why not use the "large image" function?

 

So make an image of a PDF ... upload that as the "large" image.

Then in the HTML input box, do;

 

 

<a href="pub/xyz.pdf">Click to download PDF</a>

 

And ensure you have the xyz.pdf uploaded to the /pub/ directory.

Some of my products have PDFs available. All I have done on these products is to add a text link in the product description that when clicked opens the pdf file in a new window, so the oscid is not lost on the website page that is opened. Customers can then either read it and close it, or save it to their computer. All files are saved in a named folder on the server.

 

Keep it simple.

Okey, thanks guys. Decided to upload all the fails google drive and then just paste simple code which shows pdf file picture and when you click on it, it redirects you to pdf file.

 

But maybe you can try to help me with one more issue?

So you know, when customer orders something, admin receives an order email with all the info. But there doesn't appear customers email. There appears his name, adress and other information about procuts he orderer, but not the email. How can i solve that?
