I'm adapting a drupal module to my need. It permit to upload a pdf to insert it into a node add form in an iframe to display the file. I've need also to insert a link to download the previous uploaded file.

I've read and try thousand of guide and documentation but nothing that work or adapt to my scope.

Is possible to find an easy way to create by code a download link?

  • Could you add some of your code to your question? It would be very helpful to figure out where to hook in exactly. – leymannx Sep 23 '15 at 19:21

  • Please add that code to the question, not in into a comment. So you are in a template? What template? – leymannx Sep 24 '15 at 9:58

It sounds like you're looking for the PDF Reader module.

PDF Reader will render your entity file fields with the selected PDF renderer.

The implemented PDF renderers are:

  • Google Docs Viewer
  • pdf.js - PDF Reader in JavaScript
  • Direct PDF embed
  • Microsoft Office Web Viewer(7.x-2.x-dev)

This module lets you specify any file field to render as a PDF embedded in a node. It also has an option to display download link for the embedded PDF.

You can use below HTML to download files:

$content = "<a href='FILE LINK' download='FILE NAME TO DOWNLOAD WITH EXTENSION'">Click here to download</a>';
