How to post an HTML or SWF file on a WordPress Site?

I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but I am trying to create an eBrochure and post either the HTML code or SWF file into my site for people to view. I've exported the file, but I'm not sure what to do next to get it onto my site. I can view the page that pops up, but don't seem to be able to share it or post it anywhere. Does someone know what I should do or could you refer me to any how-to videos?

A quick google search for "Embed Flash in Wordpress Site" turned up a few results that look promising.

The hard part is I have limited access to the WordPress site, so I can't use PlugIns, and I was hoping to send the link to my coworker for review, but unless they install Flash, they can't see it, and that won't work. I feel stuck!

At the end of the day, this isn't really a problem with Flash Player. It's a problem with Wordpress and browser support for Flash. I'm not a Wordpress expert, so I can't really give you much in terms of useful advice.

I'm not really sure why you'd publish an electronic brochure using Flash in 2018, especially if you want it to "just work" out of the box for anyone with a web browser. If it's just a static document, HTML or PDF might be a better choice. All the major browsers have native PDF viewers.

I don't have any context about what you made or why you chose a particular output format, but the concerns you're voicing say a lot about the fact that maybe SWF isn't the best fit for what you're trying to do.
