  Hey there!

  There are a few options you can try. You could set it up as a private page, which you could do on a few different plans, and require a password. The benefit of this would be that you do not need to have a plan that accepts plugins. Here is some more information on how to set your page up as a private/members only site. This includes a step by step guide on how to set it up, if you decide this is the best option for you. You can choose to set the entire site as private, or just certain pages. The PDF would just be uploaded to your site’s Media tab, and you could provide the direct link to the PDF to people when they sign up.

  Another great option would be to sign up for the Business plan. This would allow you to use a membership plugin.

  I’ve also attached a link below for a 101 course on how to build a membership site. I hope this helps. Feel free to reach out if you have anymore questions. I’m happy to help!
