RE: Publishing a newsletter to a website

Hi Claire,

I would suggest getting the original document and turning it into a PDF, then uploading the PDF files to a separate 'newsletter' folder of your web site, and link to each of the PDF files from a web page. (eg. if it's in Word format, open the word document and 'print to PDF'. If you don't have this, try a free program such as http://www.pdf995.com)

Alternatively, if you haven't got the original newsletter in a computer format, you could scan it in as a JPG or PDF, an upload the resulting files, and linking to them in the same way.

But PDF is the way to go for newsletters.

If your printed newsletter comes from a HTML format originally, you should be able to upload the files (again, I would suggest to a separate 'newsletter' folder), and then link to the HTML files.

Regards, Rich

Dreamweaver (adobe) tip:

Xhtml vs html

When using dreamwear template or just creating a blank webpage, you are able to select the markup language you want to use. The main choices are either xhtml or html. It is now best to select xhtml as this will translate all the html into xml, so it is transmitted across the web in xml format. One of the main advantages of this is that it makes the site that you build much more compatible with the range of different web browsers that exist.
