Show a PDF or document

You can put a PDF or other document on a screen as a content item. impressBox converts it so it displays like an image, for as long as you choose.

Add a document

In your content library, click CREATE NEW CONTENT to open the Add content dialog, then choose Document.
Pick the PDF (or other document) file from your computer, or drop it on the upload area.
Optionally give it a Title — leave it empty and the filename is used — and set Show from / Show until if it should only run for a period.
Click ADD CONTENT.
To set how long it stays on screen, open the item and set its Duration — see Set how long an item shows.

The Document dialog: choose the file, an optional title, and an optional date window

impressBox converts the file for display and adds it to your content library, ready to drop into a playlist.

Good to know

A document shows as a single static visual for its duration — like an image. To show several pages in turn, add them as separate items (or export the pages as images) and put them in a playlist.
Once added, a document behaves like any other content item — you can rename, duplicate or delete it, restrict it to a date window, and file it in categories.
Prefer a document that already matches your screen's shape (16:9 or 9:16) so nothing is cropped.
