EZ pages and PDF files

Hi,
I'm using the current version. Can I have a pdf file as an internal link in EZ pages. Where do I copy the pdf file to? and what would be the relative address?
Thanks :frusty:

Make it an external link
Address is the same as you would access it manually

If I make it an external link it doubles up the url (ie. https://www.mysite.com/www.mysite/docs/file.pdf) and still can't find it. It even does that if I just use the directory and file name (not entire URL).
I have put the pdf's in the public_html/docs dir

First, DO NOT place and advertise where your admin folder is
Second - CHANGE the name of your admin folder and apply security patches

Assuming that your cart is not in a folder the internal link to try

/download/file.pdf
