Making a PDF available to download and fill out by hand

I am setting up a digital version of a form that is currently being filled out on paper. However, the client still wants a user to be able to download and print the paper version and print it to be able to fill out manually. Is there a way to store that pdf version in the database somewhere and connect to the digital form I am creating?

    This syntax for a formula URL would work.

    If you use this code on the record where the PDF is stored in your app and exposed the code by not having any link text, then you can copy paste that code into a button on the dashboard of your app asa URL button

    URLRoot() & "up/" & Dbid() & "/a/r" & [Record ID#] & "/e7/v0 target=_blank"

    Replace the 7 with the field ID of your file attachment field.
