How do I post a PDF to DU? There's a wonderful parody of what..

.... the NYT front page should look like in 2021.

1. I don't know, but I've seen it posted twice on here recently. n/t

3. I searched for NYT and New and didn't get any hits. Can you give me a link? nt

6. The image at the above link is a .png format.

Perhaps with some appropriate software you could convert a pdf to png (or jpg or gif), then follow the usual procedures I've seen people describe on here about how to post images, which apparently involves uploading the image to an appropriate image storage site, then providing an appropriately-formatted link in your DU message to that uploaded image. I've never tried it, myself.

Good luck!

And the NYT front page from the future was both amusing and a source of hope and inspiration.

7. Yes, I learned here how to use an immage uploading site. The problem with..

... an image, at least the one that was posted, is that the small text is blurry. But thanks for confirming that there's no way to actually post a pdf.

8. Considering the small text was all filler "boilerplate" in Latin, you're probably not missing much.

9. Not anymore. At least not with my browser
