Site has several pdf documents that the client wants to make available to registered users.  My question is how to set this up.

1> I have the pdf's in a file folder visible to registered users.  If they are not registered, all I get is that they do not have permission to view the file.  I need them to be redirected to a login page so they can register.  After login or registration, they need to be redirected to the pdf file.

I just can't see how this can be done.  Can anyone give me step by step instructions or a link to a tutorial? 

g-

one way to do it is to add a repository module to the page and use that to host the pdfs or use the documents module - make that visible for registered users - then add a text module telling people to login or register to download files and make that one visible to unauthenticated users only

that way untill they log in they see a message that they need to log in first -

If that isnt good enough there are a few modules on snowcovered that will take care of some of that - I suggest Peter Donkers - Document Exchange Pro 4 - it is a good module and well written - might be too much though

Another option is to write your own (Snowcovered is a good bet though)
