When adding a document, the required fields are Add a new file and Name
  1. Use the Browse button to find and select the appropriate file on your computer.
  2. Type a unique, descriptive Name for your file. This will be the identifier you need to use to find it again in the Media Library.
  3. Optionally, type a description for your file. In some cases, the description may be displayed to site visitors instead of a file name.
  4. Click Save.

If you are next going to make a link to the file you uploaded, proceed to Links to Webpages and Files.
