Just add the pdf file to the 'resources' and link to it. When you have uploaded your site, the file will be there.
Ha en riktig god dag!

Maybe or probably I do not follow. If you look at this page:
http://www.skincarescience.com/advanced … links.html
The Link currently goes to the return page but I want it to go to a NEW window showing the PDF.
Currently I have a folder called Education with a file inside of it. So the natural link would be???

Hold a second. Link to it meaning "Not a Text Link". Meaning Link to it and what link would that be?
Button Link or ?
Because what I am after is an HREF link from a text link but it sounds to me like I cannot have that. I am confused on this one for sure.

I don't know if this will help with making link paths for you?
/ means the root of the current drive;
./ means the current directory;
../ means the parent of the current directory.
A reference: https://css-tricks.com/quick-reminder-about-file-paths/
So in RSD if you attach an image or pdf to your project folder
or "root" (main) directory the path is
/name.jpg
or
/name.pdf
If you do it like I do and put your files inside a folder (directory) in project resources
for example one called "images" the path would be;
./images/name.jpg
or in case of a pdf in that images directory it would be
./images/name.pdf
name being the specific name of the file,
plus upper & lower case counts on some servers so
Name.jpg
is different than
name.jpg
on a window server vs an apache for example so always match the case too.
