Adding pdf files to download after a redirect

I am selling on demand elearning classes to my clients. I have a redirect set up so when they click the link they are taken to the on demand webinar. My problem is that I would also like to provide them with a pdf copy of the presentation for their records. And one product has a workbook that is part of the webinar that is also a pdf to be downloaded. I am really new to this and didn't see my issue in the forum. Any help would be appreciated.

In essence I want a client to be able to purchase a class, be redirected to the webinar on my server and still be able to download a copy of the presentation without me having to send it to each one manually after the sale.

You could go about that a couple different ways, depending on whether you need the file download links to be expirable or not. If you do, then you can use our "bundling" feature to create a bundled product that issues links for both the redirection and the file download (which would each need to be set up as separate products first):

If you're not concerned about the possibility of buyers potentially sharing their file download links with others, you could simply upload the file to your own Web site and add a link to the file's URL (just like you'd make a link from one page to another) on a page where the buyer could access it. E.g., you could add that link on the webinar page itself, for buyers to click after they're redirected there, or you could add the link to the Message (HTML) field of the webinar product's settings in E-junkie Seller Admin, which would insert that link on the E-junkie-generated thank-you page (when you add custom HTML in this manner, we show the buyer a thank-you page with a link to access the redirection followed by your custom addition, rather than just redirecting them automatically).

Thank you very much for the help. One follow up question. On the second method you gave, If I go back into each of my products and add those download links in the message section, do I create new add to cart/view cart buttons ofr each product or can I jusst change the message section and keep current buttons?

It won't be necessary to update your buttons if you add the links to the Message (HTML) field in each product, in fact the only time you would ever need to update your buttons would be if you made changes to variant options or minimum/suggested price settings. Those are the only product settings that actually need to be coded into the button directly, any other changes you make to a product just go into effect the moment you update the product in our system. :)
