Added 1900hrs: Unable to upload the pdf files. Too large, apparently.
Hello Tony,

It all depends upon what program you are running - there are some scanner programmes that allow you to select JPEG. The PDF option seems to be becoming a default function lately. This is a pain in the arse! The JPEG option might be a better way to go.

I have found that sometimes when a forum's "Manage Attachments" tells me that a file is too large to upload I add an additional step. I paste the image into "Paint" and save a copy. I then attach the Paint version and it seems to let the attachment through the system.

No I am not trying to teach Granny about various methods of removing the internal contents of an egg

Kind Regards
Lionel
