      1. Click on the  button from your options toolbar on the left-hand side of your screen.
      2. Click the  button.
      3. Click the  button.
      4. Select the file you wish to upload from the browser dialog and hit the Open button.

            This will send the file to our converters to prepare them for rendering in the meeting.
            Wait for the conversion to complete, click the green "Done" button, and you will see the file now available in your content library.

            Sharing a file

            Once you have uploaded a file to your content library, you can now share it with your audience in a meeting by following the next steps:
