force pdf to download?

Hi
need to force pdf to download instead of opening in browser window.

Have tried both of the following in a htaccess file in the pdf dir:

Code:
---------
Header add Content-Disposition "Attachment"
---------

Code:
---------
SetEnvIf Request_URI "\.pdf$" requested_pdf=pdf Header add Content-Disposition "Attachment" env=requested_pdf
---------
but neither seem to make an ounce of difference. (although when I first tried them I got a 500 error for both that seems to have disappeared since.)

I have the code as is with nothing else in the htaccess file as the site I got it from was kinda sparse on info on using the code.

anyone know any different??
