Adding and Managing Documents
Let’s take a closer look at how to post and manage documents. Once uploaded, each document has additional tabs or functions accessible by a Manager or Administrator of the site. Under the Edit tab within a document or when using the Add New Document button, settings for each document can be changed.
Documents Dashboard
Documents can be managed from the dashboard, such as edit, unpublish, delete or adding documents.
- Document size is limited to 25mb by default to improve the loading time for users on slow internet connections or older computers. If your document is larger than 25mb, we recommend to compress it or to split it into multiple PDFs
- It is important to save your documents as Adobe optimized PDFs as this provides the best type of compression.
- Do not use special characters in a filename. This increases the chance that it will interfere with the file fully loading and the system mishandling the filename.
Add a New Document
- Title - Name of document
- Call to Action - Specific to each document, will display only on the document page.
- Short Description - Displayed on the homepage under the title and on the document detail page. Limited to 500 characters.
- Comment Period End Date - Enter a date and time to set an end date for the commenting period. This can also be done manually by going to the Comment Settings tab on the edit page and clicking on the “Closed” radio button. Once the document is closed to comments, the homepage will reflect that commenting is closed and show “read only” status over the thumbnail.
- Document Options
- Download - by checking or unchecking the “Allow Document to be Downloaded” you will control if a download button is displayed at the top of the document for participants to download the pdf. If the button is unchecked viewers will not be able to download the document.
- Show Table of Contents - Konveio automatically displays a Table of Content navigation showing all bookmarks defined in your PDF. No button will show if your PDF does not contain bookmarks or if this setting is disabled.
- Pin to Top of Homepage - Selecting this will display the document on the top of the list or in the first tile of the documents homepage. If selected on multiple, documents will revert to be sorted by date loaded.
- Glossary Tooltips - Our glossary feature allows you to add help text popups over every instance of common jargon words or acronyms, adding clarity to your documents for the average visitor. When visitors hover over an underlined word, a help-text definition will appear. To create a glossary, you'll upload a spreadsheet in CSV format with two columns as in our step by step guide: Adding an Interactive Glossary to your PDF.
- Download - by checking or unchecking the “Allow Document to be Downloaded” you will control if a download button is displayed at the top of the document for participants to download the pdf. If the button is unchecked viewers will not be able to download the document.
