I am new to Backlight 3 and I was wondering how I could place a button on the "About" page that would lead to a pdf file.
The file is already on the server at ftp://pideja.ca/marco/fr/pdf. The page is here: https://pideja.ca/marco/Fr/about/.
I've done this before, but on a CE3 site! http://marccharlebois.com/marc_fr/contact.php
This is a rest site, on a sub-domain. I will eventually transfer it to its proper server when I'm done with the building.

If you want it to look like a button, how about just a regular text link styled like a button?
In fact, there's a .button class in Backlight css that will style the link to look exactly like your other buttons.
you should put the pdf file in a folder on your site, not in the ftp server. The file on your old CE3 site is not in the ftp server

Thanks, Rod. I found some of your indications on https://ttg-tips-and-tricks.barbeephoto … opy-areas/
Works great. Now, I just have to find a way to add a title or text below the button to indicate it's use.

if you want it directly below the pdf image, you can try using figure and figcaption
