Idea 1: put the files in .zip archives, this will force a download.
Idea 2: find a download script, there are many I am sure - google "php 
file download".

Here is an interesting example: 
http://www.zubrag.com/scripts/download.php, it even has a simple logging 
feature. You would code your link as download.php?f=filetodownload.pdf

Hope that helps - Curt
