If you want to post a pdf on the forum and you have it there are a couple of different ways to do this.

1. Probably the simplest way to do this would be to to take screenshots of your screen while you are looking at the pages of the pdf. There is a certain key combination to do this and it will usually have "prt sc" on the key. Open a graphic editing program and paste it. Cut it to just the page save it and repeat for all pages you want. Then just post them like a normal image.

2. If you are just wanting to attach the pdf to the post then that is simple just attach.
Here is what you can post as an attachment: (I don't see pdf in the list, though.)

There it is. Even if he is not wanting to post it as an attachment he can still post the pages as images with something like
Code:
[img]www.example.com/example.jpg[/img]
To look something like this:
