Best way to post drawings to Dropbox?

PDF. "CutePDF" is freeware that installs itself as a printer. To create a PDF, you just print, selecting CutePDF as the printer.

O.K. start by visiting , and click on the bar reading "[ About the dropbox ]". It will tell you how to do it (which is emailing to a specific address).

I'll discuss some of the considerations here before you go there, since I know the fellow who runs the dropbox.

Embedded spaces in filenames *will* be changed to underscores, because such spaces are a problem on an system (including Windows) running scripts to process batches of files via invoked command lines

Most other punctuation characters (other than the '.') can be a problem on some system or other, so it is best to limit yourself to letters, numbers, '_' and '.' to make sure that everyone can access the files.

Microsoft Word files (.doc) *will* be rejected. because of the macro virus potential.

Programs in raw binary form will be rejected too.

Each set of files should be accompanied by a ".txt" file explaining what they are and why they are there.

Then -- once you have the confirmation e-mail that the files are there, post the URL here and we can take a look at the files.

Note that files in the dropbox are forever, so don't expect to remove them after we've looked at them.

Enjoy, DoN.

That means you are on a windows box.
