Question Bank Content Editor

PDF Attachments

A PDF attachment embeds a document directly in the content — candidates click it to open a built-in PDF viewer without leaving the question or downloading a file.

Adding a PDF

  • Click the PDF button on the content editor toolbar.
  • Choose Upload a file to add a new PDF, or From the Media Library to reuse one you've already uploaded.
  • When uploading a new file, it's saved into the Media Library automatically — you can set its name, folder, and labels the same way you would for any other media item.
  • Enter a title for the attachment — this is the label candidates see and click on; it's required either way.

Opening a PDF

The attachment appears in the content as a clickable file card. Clicking it opens a built-in, full-screen PDF viewer right there in the question — candidates read the document without leaving the page, downloading a file, or losing their place in the exam.

Editing an existing PDF attachment

Click the attachment in the editor to reopen the same panel, where you can replace the file or change its title without removing and re-adding the block.

Typical use cases

  • A reading passage, case study, or dataset too long to format as inline content text
  • A reference document candidates are expected to consult while answering, such as a spec sheet or policy excerpt
  • A scanned form or diagram supplied as a PDF rather than an image
