Publishing from Dropbox™
November 9th, 2015 - A unique feature to edocr is the ability
to host a document outside of edocr cloud storage, yet still
publish it on edocr. How is that useful? We can think of several
ways:
1. You just want one copy of the document, not several
copies in various places that could get out of sync in some
way.
2. The document is updated or modified from time to time,
and you don't want to have to repeat the edits in several
locations.
We have talked in the past about publishing from Googledocs,
and the advantages of that, but many people have a single
cloud storage location and want the piece of mind of
everything in one place. edocr thinks this is a sound practice,
so we allow you to place a document in your Dropbox folder,
then share that document with the world via edocr, and with
your properly set up Profile and viewing template, your
dropbox document can enrich your search engine optimization
(SEO) and drive more traffic to your website, or act as a lead
gen document where you gather the contact information of the
people visiting to read the document.
From Dropbox, find the file you wish to publish on edocr, then
right click on the file name, choose "Share Dropbox Link" which
copies the link into the clipboard; then paste that link into the
"enter a URL" space on the "create a share" page.
