Creating a link to PDF
-
Hello,
I have pages in my website that simulate brochures. I have actual PDF files of those brochures.
I would like to create hyperlinks that open my PDF files and allow the user to print them.
Can this be done and what if any plug ins do I need?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You are confusing wordpress.com hosted sites like yours with wordpress.org software installs on paid hosting. For that type of functionality, you’d need a self-hosted WordPress.ORG software install running on a paid web hosting service.
At present there is no FTP access and no blogger installed plugin capability on any free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and there is no upgrade you can purchase here that changes that reality.
