To offer downloadable CV/Cover Letter templates as PDF files on your Webflow website, you can follow these steps:

Create the CV/Cover Letter templates: Start by designing your CV/Cover Letter templates using any design software like Adobe Illustrator or Canva. Ensure that the templates are properly formatted and visually appealing.
Export templates as PDF: Once you have finalized the templates, export them as PDF files. In most design software, you can go to File > Export and choose the PDF format. Ensure that the exported PDFs are of high quality and optimized for web viewing.
Upload the PDF files: Log in to your Webflow account and access the Designer platform. Select the page where you want to offer the download links for the CV/Cover Letter templates.

Link the PDF file: With the button/link selected, click on the "Settings" tab in the right sidebar. Under the "Link Settings," choose the "External URL" option. In the URL field, paste the direct link to your PDF file. Make sure the link starts with "https://" or "http://".
Style and position the button/link: Customize the button/link's appearance and position it properly on your page. You can adjust the size, color, typography, and spacing to match your website's style and design.
Publish and test: Once you are satisfied with the design and placement, publish your Webflow website. Navigate to the page where you added the CV/Cover Letter template download button/link and test it to ensure that the PDF files open or download as intended.
