Can I insert a PDF into a course slide?
Hi All,

I have published a good number of documents as web objects and it is working pretty well. However! They don't render in safari, users just get a greyed out box. Has anyone else encountered this/found a solution?

That is odd that your learners see a greyed-out box when using Safari. I tested this out in a demo course with a PDF web object, and it appeared fine for me.
Is this happening for every course that is viewed in Safari or just a couple of courses? What might be happening here is that the hosting website where the documents are located are not secure.

HI Vincent,
Good call - I think you are right. I am running two separate instances of Blackboard and the content works in one and not the other.
The one in which the content works has the little padlock in the search bar and the other doesn't so I guess I need to sort that out with our technical team.
Thanks for the nudge though!
Katie
