Hi folks! There's probably a dead simple answer to this one (I hope!). I want visitors to be able to download a .pdf form from my website to their local PC. I haven't got a clue where to start - can any of you point me in the right direction please?

Replacing the file to download bit appropriatly.

Remember to warn them to "Right click, and 'save as'.", or they'll wind up with the pdf opening in their browser window.

Hi deetomson,
you can also package your .pdf file into a .zip file and then create a link to it (to avoid open the pdf file in the browser window)
