That's just nature of Google Groups.

Regarding OP's issue, while there's no way to store "file:///" links
in Google Bookmarks (as John said, this is a Google Bookmarks
"feature", not a limitation of GMarks) if you really had a huge number
of links you wanted to save, you could technically install IIS and put
your PDFs in your wwwroot folder.  Then you could reference the
documents like this:  "http://127.0.0.1/file.pdf"; and save those links
in Google Bookmarks.  (Note:  "http://localhost"; links are also
stripped by Google, so make sure you use the loopback address instead)

Perhaps a cleaner solution is to create one simple "index.html" page
that stores all of your "file:///" links to your PDFs and documents.
Then you could just put that one HTML page in your wwwroot folder and
your PDFs can stay wherever they are.
