Default Attaching PDF

I'm trying to attach a pdf to a thread, so go in to attachments, and select the file I wish to upload. The file is, supposedly according to windows, 1.06 MB in size. The attachment list identifies that pdfs up to 1.43 MB can be uploaded.

When I attempt to upload the file, I get an error message saying that the file "Exceeds your quota by 604.1 KB". I have checked and I have no other files uploaded.

Any suggestions as to how to get this to work?

Thanks.

Craig

Have you thought about saving it as a JPEG and use photobucket or the likes?

Yes but the document is 40 pages long! That's a lot of images

Any mods able to help out, pls?

I'm at a loss?

I can't see anything in your profile that would prevent it and you don't have many other attachments uploaded so it's unlikely you have hit an overall limit.

I'll pm you an email address and if you like send it to me and I'll have a go at attaching.

Rob

Hey Rob,

Thanks. Have e-mailed you. Glad to see I'm not the only one perplexed by this!

Thanks for being a contributor to the forum

I know how frustrating it can be when you're willing and able to help others but the technology isn't working.
