Hello Brenda

When you say you are trying to get some
PDF files onto your site do you mean to make
them available for download?

If you want to make the PDF file a downloadable then
you will need to set up a link to the file that is on
your server.

EG: If your file is called mybook.pdf and your
domain name is www.mywebsite.com then you will
need a link on your site pointing to:
http://www.mywebsite.com/mybook.pdf

When a visitor clicks this link they will be able
to download your PDF to their computer.
Hope this helps
