Question
How do I publish a Google Doc?
Answer
Once you're done creating and editing your document, you can publish it to a webpage. Go to the File menu and click Publish to the Web. Then, click Published content & settings, then Publish. You can send your document's URL to your friends, colleagues, and family, and they can enter it in their browser address bar to view your document.
You can control how many people have access to your doc by changing the visibility setting of the doc. For example, changing the setting from Anyone with the link to Private will restrict access to those people who have explicit edit or view access to the doc. Follow these steps to change your doc's visibility option:
- Click the blue Share button to open the Sharing dialog.
- Below the sharing box, go to the Get Link box, click Change.
- Click the drop down arrow and choose who can see this doc from the list.
- Click Save.
- Click Done to close the Sharing dialog and return to your doc.
