I want to restrict a pdf file on my server from being viewed or downloaded. for example, when somebody types below url in browser and press enter.
http://example.com/pdf/sample-pdf1.pdf
the file should not be viewed or downloaded. instead, it should get redirected somewhere else or should display some error message
But, when i download the same file using php or html code, it should get downloaded
for example when i use below code in a php file, it should get downloaded.
[a href="http://example.com/pdf/sample-pdf1.pdf" download]Download[/a]
Insert .htaccess file inside pdf directory with content:
"Deny from all" -
That will not allow access that directory and files inside it via URL.
I have a client project in which I have to read an excel file from following link:
https://app6.bosch.de/cgi-bin/WebObjects.dll/V5Prod_WES6.woa/39/wo/UpG9CtiiPkkyvA2ECwgqkg/41.0.1.3.21.1.1.9.9.0.2.27.3.17.7.1
Everytime a new link is generated, when we click on this link in normal site, it opens in a new tab an excel download option.
How to read the same file from my website using PHP (e.g. using curl)? I want to read this file and save it in my website directory automatically.
I need to find a way to upload a pdf file to my terms & services page in opencart2. I've looked for an extention, but the suitable extentsion are for opencart 1.5.x.
Is there a way to upload a pdf file and make it downloadable on the information page?
The easiest way would be to upload the file using FTP to a location within your website (e.g. the downloads subdirectory), then put a link to it on the information page using the information page editor. (e.g. http://www.tuinenmetgevoel.nl/downloads/myfile.pdf)
I am developing an App which uploads files i.e. images,pdfs,text documents to Amazon S3. I am able to upload the files using S3.php class.
I have to store two links to the file in the database , the first link is the link to view the file in the browser if it is an image or a pdf document. The second link is to download the file.
I am able to generate the URL for each of the file using :
$url = $s3->getAuthenticatedUrl($bucket,$uri,$expiry)
But clicking the URL starts downloading the file, also this URL has an expiry time. But I have to store the links in database for longer time.
I also have to display the images and pdfs inside the browser, How can I generate the links. Kindly help...

As of late 2018, clicking the link won’t trigger a download if the resource to be downloaded wasn’t served from the same origin or same server. Apparently, this is restriction is a security measure.
You can download the content in browser and make it downloadable, you can check the below url
https://medium.com/charisol-community/downloading-resources-in-html5-a-download-may-not-work-as-expected-bf63546e2baa
you can try this
Download
HTML5 defines the download attribute, which forces the browser to prompt the user a download dialog for the resource instead of navigate to it.
Here is the support across the different browsers: http://caniuse.com/#feat=download.
Its not the problem with your script, instead its your browser that has pdf plug-in and displays you the content file directly.You can just save the page (Press CTRL+S) and it would be saved as .PDF file.
Thanks.
The HTML5 download attribute is only supported by Chrome and firefox... Try this :
Download
Download.php
header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=http://www.mydomain.org/pdf/book.pdf");
header("Content-type: application/pdf:");
readfile("http://www.mydomain.org/pdf/book.pdf");
if you want to download the pdf in next tab with current website intact then use following code:
Download
