Mission kneeboard

[simo-dj]

Hello everybody,

forgive me for this silly question.

Let's say I created my first, decent-to-play-and-i-hope-worth-to-share-it mission.

I found on dcs homepage kneeboard files for each aircraft with checklist and so on. I guess those are "permanent" files, so each time i use that aircraft or helo, i found this page when i bring up kneeboard.

I created a .pdf brefing and i'd like to put some of its pages in the kneeboard, but i want these pages appear on the kneeboard only for this mission, not for each time i fly this given aircraft.

Is it possible to do so? If so, how to do it and where place this file?

Thanks a lot!!!

Thanks!!!

You can use any zip tool, for example 7-zip is free .. but I use WinRAR, like this:

... I assume that what's written about images it works for pdf's as well.

 

Not really, the kneeboard only accepts graphic files, not PDF. I use the Kneeboard Builder utility for easy conversion beween PDF to image, it even adds the folder to the MIZ file with no need of other software, like this:
