I am
building an Engage interaction where the users click on the five buttons and see
text and hear audio about the five content topics.
I also want them
to have access to additional web content and MS Word docs or PDFs. I know I can link them to the websites for
the web content, but I am not sure how I can easily give them access to the document
files without having to hunt for them “attachments” tab.
Sorry to be dense about this. Are you saying that I can add the PDF as anattachment in the “attachments” tab, and then link it to the hyperlink in theEngage interaction as long as it is labeled with the file structure below?
I tried what you suggested with no success. I probably am doing it wrong. Can anyone reply to my question below?

Hi Greg! The screencast below shows how to use the approach Phil mentioned. This will work if your Engage interaction is part of a course you've built with PowerPoint & Presenter, and you've added the documents to your course using the Attachments feature in Presenter.

You can add a link in your text, if you add as an attachment your link would be
data/downloads/yourfilename
It is best to link to pdfs as IE can throw an error with office dos
