You can add a tracking event to the onclick event of the link pointing
to the PDF. There's plenty of documentation on how to do this on the
Google site.
Basically you add some script to the onclick event of the link, which
registers a virtual page view with Analytics, whicch will then appear in
reports.

A contact has Google Analytics on her Wordpress site, but as Analytics
tracking is client-side she doesn't know how to tell how many people
download her pdf brochure.
I know this can be tracked using the web server's logs, but
correlating that to Analytics looks like hard work.
Does anyone know how to get GA to track the downloads?
Thanks in advance
