Download Question

[piolilly]

Hi,
I want my customers to download a workbook. I just put a link to the pdf file on my download page, but that just opens it instead of downloading and saving it to their hard drive. What do I need to do this?

Thanks

could put it in a zip file

You can do a ADO stream or alter the headers to force the download when a person clicks on it. There are a few ways to do this. It will vary on the scripting language (ASP, PHP, etc.) you are using.

You can rename the file to *.xxx and ask the customers to rename xxx to pdf after downloading the file

Also, they can save the pdf after it's open.

Next to the link put "Right click on link and select save as".
