Add a document download to individual pages

By default, all downloadable assets (documents) uploaded to the system appear in the Asset library. Additionally, Brand Toolbox allows you to also include these downloads on individual or multiple pages across the site.

For example, as well as the user being able to download the ‘Masterbrand logo’ from the Asset library, you may want to include the ‘Masterbrand logo’ download on an individual logo guidelines page, relevant to the logo they are about to download.

This gives users quicker access to the documents when browsing the guidelines page.
