Can anyone tell me if it is possible to add a download attribute to force a pdf to download rather than open in a browser window? I can't find anywhere to do this and I don't want the files opening in the browser as they don't display correctly.

Hi Frank,

There is no option to control that attribute and usually it depends on the user's browser how it will handle the PDF link.
You can only add the whole link manually with the code using the HTML control to add the desired attribute.

Thanks for your response. Guess I'll have to manually code the element.
