I have a site - http://froi.appspot.com/ - that serves up static pdf documents without a problem.
I happen to have created a separate folder for them, so the app.yaml entry looks like this: - url: /pdf static_dir: pdf/ Note that, as with any 'static' files, the app server can serve them directly, but the Python application code cannot access them. Maybe that is how you are getting those '404' errors. What I need to do, but can't do yet, is process "pdf forms" - have the app take a blank pdf document and "fill in the blanks" with data entered by the user. There are open-source Java libraries to do this, but I couldn't find any pure-Python code that I could load into the App Engine. I started to try a port of a Java library to Python, but after looking at a lot of Java source, my eyes glazed over. Are you, or is anyone else, working with pdf forms?
