The overwhehlming consensus by SEO experts is that PDF files linked from pages should be included in sitemaps - the sitemap generator in X5 does not include them and I don't see any options to add them..?

There are external sitemap generators, including free ones, e.g.

On this page I like to explain which file types are indexed by the Sitemap Generator and how the generator aggregates the data for a sitemap.

Hi Adrian, 

I was confirmed this is an intended behavior, since the PDF is not a page of the website itself. If you want to, though, I can set this message ad Idea. 

Thanks! Kind regards.
