Upload your PDF to a file-sharing service like Dropbox, Google Drive, Scribd, or OneDrive, then add a shareable hyperlink to your EventCreate site so attendees can access it.
How to Add a PDF to Your Event Website
If you want to share a PDF or other file on your EventCreate event website, we recommend using a hyperlink or button to link to your document. This works best when the file is stored on a file-sharing service such as:
Dropbox
Google Drive
Scribd
OneDrive
Or any other similar service
Steps to Add Your PDF Link
Upload your PDF to your preferred file-sharing service.
Copy the shareable link for your file.
Add the link to your EventCreate website wherever you want attendees to access it.

Tip
Make sure your file’s sharing permissions are set so that anyone with the link can view or download it, otherwise your attendees won’t be able to access it.
Alternative Option: Convert PDF to Image
If you’d prefer to display your PDF directly on your site as an image, you can convert your PDF to a JPEG file.
You can use this free third-party tool: PDF to JPG Converter
Once converted, simply upload the image to your EventCreate site as you would with any other image.
Tip:
Images generally load faster than linked PDFs and are easier for guests to view on mobile devices.
Another option is to add a link or button to your PDF and place it on an additional website page on your event site. You can then share that page with guests by email, and you also have the option to password-protect it if needed.
Option 1: Use an Additional Form
This works well if you want:
A separate link to share
A clean URL to email to guests
Step 1: Create an additional form
Follow this guide:

Step 2: Get your form URL
Your additional form will have its own public URL.
You can edit or copy it it by going to:
Setup → Website → URL
You can share this URL:
Directly in an email
Or add it to your event website as a link or button
Step 3: Add it to your emails
You can include the form link in any email template:
Go to Share & Tools → Emails / Invites
Click the Templates tab
Add the form URL to a button or text link

Option 2: Add the PDF to its own website page
You can also place your PDF on a dedicated page within your EventCreate website.
Step 1: Create a new web page
Follow this guide:
https://support.eventcreate.com/en/articles/5951491-can-i-add-pages-to-my-eventcreate-site
Add a link or button on that page that opens your PDF.
Step 2: Control who can access it
When building your site, you can control visibility:
Go to: Setup → Website → Privacy
From here you can:
Set your site to Private, so only people with the link can access it
Or require a password by enabling:
Setup → Website → Privacy → Event Page Password
This is ideal for:
Private schedules
VIP documents
Speaker notes
Post-event files
