Might I just add that for firefox users there is the excellent Add-0n called Screengrab http://screengrab.org/ very useful and quick. Save file as .png or .jpg
You may also be looking for a very handy image viewer, where you can edit the image/crop etc. Go get a copy of Infanview which is open source and free.

That does sound useful. Thanks for the hint.

Has anybody worked out how to upload a PDF document to Photobucket?

Alternatively do you have a favourite File upload web site for PDFs ?

Kind regards,
Walter

No can do, I think, only certain file types accepted. Following quote fron their help pages:-


"Images - gif, jpg, jpeg, png, bmp. Photobucket converts bmp files, which are not appropriate for the Internet, to jpg files, which are.

Note: The Image Editor does not retain the animation in animated .gif files.

Videos - 3g2, 3gp, 3gp2, 3gpp, 3p, asf, avi, divx, dv, dvx, flv, gif, moov, mov, mp4, mpeg4, mpg4, mpe, mpeg, mpg, qt,  wmv, xvid, rm. All video files are converted to Flash Video (flv) format when you upload them.

swf - SWF file uploads are limited to Pro account holders. SWF files must be 10MB or less, and can only be uploaded through the Image & Video Uploader, the old Photobucket image uploader, or via FTP. If you want to upload SWF files into your Photobucket album, we recommend that you upgrade to a Pro account.

A file name must end in one of the above extensions or your upload will fail, and you will get an error message. In addition to the correct file extension, the internal file type must be one of the supported types. If you have a media file with an extension that is not on the supported list, use a graphic/image or video editor, and try converting it into a supported file type, then save it as the new file type, with the appropriate extension."


For uploading/displaying PDFs this is popular, though I have never tried it :-

If it was a single page pdf, then you could take a screen shot of it and post it that way.
