    Hey @Vernongrant73! Thanks for posting on the Community. 

     

    What you can try, in this case, is to create a shared link to your text files and add it to your YouTube channel/videos. 

     

    One thing to keep in mind though is that this could potentially cause your Dropbox account to exceed its daily limit of data sharing in certain occasions.

     

    Let me know if you need more help though.

        Hi Vernongrant73 and welcome to the Dropbox Community 😊

         

        As Nancy mentioned, YouTube doesn’t support adding text files like .doc, .docx, or .pdf, but you can share a Dropbox link in the Youtube description to your Study guides instead.

        By the way, I’m Theresa, a Community Manager at Dropbox. If you're open to sharing, I’d love to hear how you use Dropbox daily and which features you rely on. We might be able to share tips to boost your productivity!

         

        Looking forward to hearing from you ðŸ˜º
