			== Using non-image files ==

			While image files can be used in two ways, the non-image local uploads can only be inline.

			Linking to non-image files is given by clicking on the button [[Image:Button_media.png]] and specifying the filename of the uploaded file. Or just by typing the command on the respective place in the page, when opened in edit mode.

			For instance,
			<pre>
			[[Media:Example.pdf]]
			</pre>
			which gives [[Media:Example.pdf]].

			The link to the image description page is, respectively: [[Image:Example.pdf]], with or without the colon.
