[Tutorial] : Embedding Scribd Documents

[Paramvir]

DesiCreative now supports embedding Scribd.com documents.

Its a bit tricky, but not too much. Heres a small tutorial:

1) Find your document on scribd. (for the purpose of this illustration, I have searched for 'Why Give Gifts'

2) Click on Share and Embed

3) Click select and copy the Embed code from as shown in the image

4) Paste the code in a new Simple Text document and select+copy+paste ONLY the portion shown in the yellow band and add a '?' in between the two codes (after /ScribdViewer.swf)

5) so the new code you have created looks like this:

Code: Select all

6) copy the code into your 'New Post' dialogue box, select the whole code and click on the 'Scribd' icon on the top of the post dialogue box on desicreative.com/forum

that should do. I hope I was clear?

=> Paste the selected URL (without the quotes) in your 'New post' dialogue box in desicreative.com/forum

=> Select the code and click the 'scribd' button

=> Click select 'Submit' button for your post.

=> Wait a brief moment (for the flash to load) and see your document embedded. As shown in this example.
