By "client" are you talking about the WebFOCUS client or some individual on a PC? Is the server a WF server? Is the PDF generated by WF? automatically or on demand (via MRE or HTML launch page?)

Well, if the source and destination folders are addressable by the WebFOCUS server, you could execute system commands within a fex to copy the file, or you can use some non-WebFOCUS method.

If it is just a static PDF file and you just want someone else to be able to view it from an HTML page, how is WebFOCUS involved?
