[Tom Mcgreevy]

Just thought I'd put on an example of what can be achieved on your nabble forum by using' scribd ' http://www.scribd.com Totally interactive PDF displays Sorry to put this on the support forum, but I thought it might help nabble users to really update and make their sites outstanding. Hope it helps everyone ! I'm a Soldier...get me out of here !

Personally, I would not encourage conversion to iPaper.

Amongst other things: at the Scribd Support Desk I can find nothing about accessibility; the Scribd example in this topic does not work well with keyboard navigation.

Thanks for comments Graham.
     I still cant fault scribd ipage,   and I still keep all my docs etc in original format ( I just make a copy on my computer then upload the copy to scribd ).
I think it's brill for displaying PDF's on any website ( with the embed code supplied with every Document )
     You can also sell on scribd and keep 80% of content price ( only available to buyers and sellers in the USA at the moment as scrib store still in beta )
     I plan to make my two books available as ebook downloads ( cutting out the middlemen ), and put them on scribd with my Paypal account,  and as scribd has tens of millions of visitors a month. I still think scribd ipage is another way forward.
     One great use I found for scribd is keeping the family informed about events. ( My Son and his partner are prgnant.  They had first baby scan with photo. I uploaded photo to scribd after converting a copy to PDF,  instantly available on scibd,  and relitives in Australia can interact with scan to enlarge it to any size/Download it/use embed code to put on their site/print/zoom in/zoom out/see full page,  and lots of other stuff.
     I value your comments ( I follow you on Nabble support forums all the time ),  and would like to hear in detail, what may be the dis-advantages of scribd ipage technology.
( I still think it's a great way to put a bit of life into a nabble site,  much better than You-tube )
     All the best to you Graham

Sorry Graham.. I should have pointed out,  that images cant be uploaded,  but if you insert them into MS Word doc/Open Office etc,  they become part of the doc and will be displayed.
     I upload as PDF or Word doc etc,  and it all becomes ipaper ( sorry for confusion mate )

Thanks :)

Pros and cons of Scribd should be discussed at the Scribd site, but as I already mentioned accessibility: this is one of the first things that I seek. Using Safari on Mac OS X, with the keyboard alone I can not reach the Scribd toolbar. In other Scribd examples: even when I can reach the toolbar, the menus (such as More) are inaccessible.

Scribd aside: for images, I use the Insert Image feature of Nabble.

Kind regards
Graham
