html anchor tag - download attribute doesnt download pdf on chrome

I m using html anchor tag with download attribute in following way

<a href="assets/documents/White and Black Minimalist Resume.pdf" download>Resume</a>

but when clicked on link it is redirecting to href url instead of downloading any help would be appreciated.

Solution

  • Try this :

    <a href="./directory/yourfile.pdf" download="newfilename">Download the pdf</a>

    hopefully, this will work.
