I want to redirect certain requests to a pdf depending on a get

with the basics but just redirecting a certain page to a pdf, which
works.
RewriteRule ^/test\.php$ /pdf/somefile.pdf$ [R,T=application/pdf]
Which works fine. But, since I want to send different pdfs depending
on an ID, I need to handle urls like this one...
/test.php?fileId=12
.. which in turn should redirect to ...
/pdf/pdfnumber12.pdf
... so i wrote this rule...
RewriteRule ^/test\.php\?fileId\=12$ /pdf/pdfnumber12.pdf [R,T=application/pdf]
.. which does not work. But even when I simplify the regex to just ...
I believe RewriteRule only looks at the URL, not the query string
following the "?".
But you can use a RewriteCond to look at the query string. Something
like this ought to work:
RewriteCond ${QUERY_STRING} ="fileId=12"
ReWriteRule ^/test\.php$ /pdf/somefile.pdf$ [L]
