Downloadable documents

Stand-alone documents that visitors to Your Simple Website can download and keep on their own device (computer, smartphone or tablet) for reference or to print out are a great way to build a lasting connection with them.  The documents may be a brochure for your enterprise, or information about specific products that you are offering or anything else.

 

The most common format for stand-alone documents is PDF (portable document file).  A PDF can be created from a Microsoft Word document, from pictures, or from other documents.  

 

While PDF is the preferred format (because your website visitors can't easily modify them) you can also offer documents in  formats such as Microsoft Word (.docx, .doc), rich text format (.rtf), plain text documents (.txt), or image files such as JPEG (.jpg) or Portable Network Graphics (.png) documents.

 

We can convert a Word Document or images to a PDF to use on your website, as an extra.

 

We can also embed your stand-alone documents in Your Simple Website for your visitors to download, as an extra. 

 

Downloadable file limitations

Your Simple Website, hosted with Jimdo Free, allows downloadable PDFs (portable document file) and image files (GIF, JPEG, PNG, SVG) only, with a maximum file size of ten megabyte.  Other document types or documents with file size up to 100 megabyte require upgrading Your Simple Website hosting to Jimdo Pro or Jimdo Business.
