    Hi libelum!

    You can create a link like so.

    <a href = "URL to your PDF file">Click to download this PDF</a>

    Depending on the browser it will open up the PDF in the browser and the user can right click > save as that way. If you want it to download automatically then zip up the PDF file into an archive and link to the archive instead.

    Regards,
    Elliott

    Hi,

    You can upload the file in the backend of your WordPress installation under Media.

    Thanks,
