  • As a web location that can be accessed from a URL

    For instance, a document in SharePoint or a web page of an external site.

  • As a file on a locally accessible location

    For instance, an Office document on the network, a PDF file saved on a machine.

  1. Log on and start Site management.
  2. Click on: New in the Page frame.
  3. Click on: Document.
