We have some pdf as a multimedia components. And I would like to know the url before I publish the page where we are using the pdf. The component is already published.
I was trying to guess looking another examples: domain/en/multimedia/Name_pdf.pdf But didn't work...
¿Someone knows the rule?
Thank you,
A lot depends on how you are handling the multimedia component within your templates, whether you are creating variants (probably not for PDF files) and, to a certain extent, what kind of delivery environment you are using and how it is configured.
If you are trying to output a link to your published binary from a template, you should probably use the out-of-the-box functionality by outputting syntax like
<a href="#" tridion:href="[MMCompTcmUri]">text</a>
from your templates and then using the other default TBBs to publish the component and resolve the link for you.
However, in a default, standard 2009 environment, with normal publishing, you should find that your file is simply published to the file system at
<Publication Images Path>\<Binary Filename>
With the link resolving to
http://<Your server>/<Publication Images URL>/<Binary Filename>
Note: In earlier versions of Tridion the binary filename was manipulated to include the TCM Id for uniqueness, but by 2009 this was no longer the case
