I have a course and in one screen of this course there is a button that when clicked it downloads a PDF.
Now, I have try it locally in my computer and it works well in my computer but when I export my course and when I check in the colleted files folder I cannot see the PDF file.
So do I have to place manually the PDF in the published folder and Will it work when I place my course in the LMS?
This happened to me once, and I found out it was because I moved the location of the PDFs after I inserted them into the project. It worked while working within the project, but it didn't put the PDFs in the exported folder.
Hi David! I'm not sure who the expert is that you're waiting on, but I thought that I would try to help you. This thread has a lot of good information. To answer your question though, yes, you need to manually be sure that the pdf is in your output folder where your story.html file resides (it should automatically be done and placed in the story_content folder, but I would check). I hope this helps! Be sure to test your content in the intended environment as shown in this article. Have a great day!
