Hi Sudhanshu,
You need to do the following n click of the URL:
1. Read the content of the file as base64 encoded and save it on a property say pyNote. This can be done using a simple Java step and shouldn't be a problem if you know the file path
2. Call Code-Pega-PDF.View and pass the byte array obtained in step 1 and the document name

Hi,
To download any file you must place them in some server location. To achieve your requirement upload the pdf file to binary file, to download the pdf file call "Rule-File-Binary.downloadFile" activity by passing the pzInsKey of binary file on click of the download link.
