how does product content relate to a part that makes up a product?

You can use Product Content (it's a tab when viewing a product in catalog), but
you'll likely need to add custom ProductContentTypes to reflect the types of
documents you want to attach.

Hi again!
I'm looking for a way to attach pdf files (or any type of files) to a product.
I wish to be able to have our engineers link plans to parts, in such a way that
it would be very simple, viewing any product, to generate a list of all the
parts required to build it, and have access to all the plans for our guys at
manufacturing. It would eventually be useful for a client wanting to change a
piece, I think.
Up to now, I have dabbled in the "Content" application, but I don't think I have done it
right. I wanted to create a new content type, called "plans" or something, and be able to
upload that extra piece of information for each product based on the new content type I created...
The idea is that the engineers could just attach the files themselves with no
intervention on my part whatsoever. Am I on the right track? My googling around
and searching on the mailing list didn't seem to point directly to that, and/or
suggested that I couldn't just configure it on OFBiz out of the box without
messing around with the code a little bit.
Thanks again,
Olivier
