Re: Re: Re: View PDF File online
Whether the files are displayed with the browser, or downloaded as a file, the size of the data transfer is the same. As for Tikiwiki, it doesn't have any limits to file sizes; sometimes the PHP configuration of the server might need to be changed if you are experiencing trouble, but this is usually related to file uploads, not downloads.
Are you having any trouble using Tiki's file galleries for these files? This method should work fine.
Adding to what Bacca said, to reduce large file transfers, maybe you could make smaller pdf files that would contain introductions or summaries or chapters of the larger files. Then they could be selected individually, which might be more convenient for the user, and the user could come back for the other parts or for the full document if desired.
