I have some static .html pages, they doesn't contain nothing weird or fancy. For example some of them comes from a MS Word document with text only, but heavily formatted (italics for some keywords, inline short expressions of code, blocks of code formatted as corresponding language, etc.) ---> meaning converting these pages to markdown is not a trivial task.

I have tried uploading a simple html file but I can not call it. For example if I use www.mysite.com/path/file.html I get a 404 error. That's the reason I wonder:

Is it possible to publish static .html pages? If it is possible how can I give to my readers access to them?

Cheers.
