A quick and dirty force method that I use would be something like this: $file = "x:\\path\\to\\the\\file.pdf"; header('Content-Description: File Transfer'); header('Content-Type: application/force-download'); header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($file)); header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=' . basename($file)); readfile($file); Note the double backslashes!
