If so, you either need to map a network drive or make the pdf available via a url.

You could store the pdf in the database -

Not sure what database you are using.

The server is within a DMZ on the network so not sure that is possible

Thanks Pat I will look at that option too.
Jim files are under 256k

I cant speak for 7.7, but 7.5 and 7.6 will allow you to host files using ignitions webserver. outside of that what was already mentioned are your only options.
