Posting pdf files regarding chemistry
« on: May 24, 2008, 12:17:20 PM »
Hi:

So whats the rule in posting pdf files?  There are some good books/experiements that I would like to share...

(I mean aside from the obvious copyright violation, some are okay for redistribution *I think*)

Thanks  ;D

Having been in this forum for a while, here is my best recollection of what to publish.
They are cautious here and do not want to take unnecessary chances with violating copyrights.
Although they seem to have enough space, I do not think they can accept a very large number of attachments.
Links are great but can be ephemeral.
The “I think” would make the site managers very apprehensive.
If you are posting your own work I would suggest you put it or get it accepted to another location and link to it.

Example below -
Here is a source of definitive studies on the Hindenburg fire.

I understand.  I found this freeware called MolCalc, but I guess everyone can google it and download it themselves. I just googled it and its similar to the program I have, close enough.

You can still share things without posting files. Just the highlights and if people find what you say about it interesting, they can go get the additional information themselves.
