I was trying to link from my project to certain files in the documents folder, and it only gives me options of ‘factsheets’, ‘images’ or ‘ultraphotogallery’, and factsheets do not seem to contain the file (small business guide) that I want to link to. I had a look through the documentation, and I either missed it or … Any suggestions about how to do this?

Re: How do I include a link to a document in my project Text

You need to use the following steps to include a link to a non-picture item:-

Go to the document library and hover over your document you want to link to
Right click and select 'Copy Shortcut'
Now go to your project and edit the text where you want to put in the link to your document
Put in a text name for the link, such as 'Small Business Guide' and select that text.
Now press the 'Create Link' command (symbol looks like the world with a chain on it) in the editor. This will put up a window saying Hyperlink, with 'http://' highlighted
Now paste the shortcut you copied in step 2 (cntrl-V)
Hit ok on the hyperlink window
Press update at the bottom of the page to update the text box

Your text should nwo have a link in it to your document. If people click on it it should offer to open it with adobe acrobat
