There are a lot of use cases for providing documents or files for learners to download or open as part of a learning experience.
One way to do this is to add a Link to File action to an element, which will open the file when a learner clicks on the element.
You can link to any file from the Media Library, including documents, PDF files and media like image, audio or video files.
Many themes have a Resources button under the Menu options.
When you set a button (or other element) with a Link to File action the file is automatically added as a Resource for the Project. If the learner doesn’t download it on the page where the button is, it’s always available under the Resources on the Menu.
