How To Insert a PDF into a Storyline 3 slide?

I think my Title above says it all.

I just want to insert a PDF into a  
Storyline 3 slide. And I don't want to
insert it from a URL.

I simply just want to know how to get
a PDF copied into a slide that I can
then work on inside of S3.

Thanks in advance for your help!

All the best,

Rand

    If you want to attach a copy of the PDF to the course, use Jump to URL/File trigger. You just have to show the trigger that you're attaching a file. Clicking such a link opens the attached file in a new window or tab (depending on the user's browser settings). 

    Here's more info from the User Guide: https://community.articulate.com/series/storyline-3/articles/storyline-3-working-with-hyperlinks#file 

    If you want to display pages from a PDF (or other file) on a slide, the most common way to do that is to insert an image of the page. Put the page (or pages) within a scrolling panel as needed.
