..I did this on
Workshops
..I used a .PDF icon as a link-

click the Inspector down in your Iweb window, click on the link- icon within the top bar of the inspector- Choose 'link to a file' and choose-

..That should do it..

You need to upload your pdf file somewhere, and then link to from your iWeb page.

As far as I know, Iweb takes care of this itself..
But yes, the files should end up in the online folder where the other files belonging to this page are.
See what happens if you play with this in 'uploading' to a local folder..

Good luck,
