Can I upload a PDF for public (guest) download?

I'm preparing a plan/build article I hope will be published in a future RCM&E issue. To supplement the article, in it I want to be able to publish a link (URL) to a PDF file with a more comprehensive set of build instructions and pictures so that members and guests (general public) can easily download it.

 

Can I upload a PDF file to this forum/site?

Is there a size limit?

Will the link URL be relatively simple or be verbose and obfuscated in some way (e.g. with guid type hexadecimal sequences)?

Presumably I need to have my PDF finalised and uploaded to obtain a link URL and if I want to modify it the URL will change?

 

I hope the above makes sense. Any help or guidance appreciated.

There should be no problem uploading .pdf files - example attached.

When I uploaded that it said the maximum total size possible was 48.83 Mb.

Providing guest access via a URL to the file will not be possible.

 

Why not use one of the many free file sharing services such as Google, Dropbox, iCloud, Box, Onedrive, etc?
