Claudette, the simplest technique is simply to create a link against any text or image.

Depending on the configuration of the users PC they will be offered either download file or open file (from which it can be saved locally in any case)

Hello Claudette

Another way is to use iframes.

I have an example here : http://eksempelsite.dk/x52019test/evoluted.html

To the left a list. The list could be set to only show PDF-files. And to be sorted on the file-date so the newest would be on top. 

Try to click on a PDF. Yoy will then see this in the right-window and there is an icon shown, where user can download.

If you do it this way, then the only thing you have to do, is to upload the PDF to the folder. That's all.

No need to also open the x5 software, insert a link and then upload the project. All will be automatic.

If it is only one static PDF then the link-method will be the best and simplest.
