    get rid of (or around) the id folder in the media url

    Hi, 

    I am trying to build a multilanguage site in umbraco. 

    It has been going pretty good, but now I have stumbled upon a problem. 

     

    The site has a lot of PDFs, and all these pdfs are to be translated into different languages. 

    The first solution to this was to have a different suffix in the pdf name for each pdf

    (example: 

    instructions.pdf would exist as instrurcitonsEN.pdf and instruktions.SE.pdf, 

    And then the only thing the translator would need to do would be to change the suffix in the a href to the language he is working in. 

    However umbraco adds the medias Id into the url, and every document gfets a unique Id. and thus the translator needs to know the id of the document in order to make the url point to the right pdf. 

    This creates a lot of extra work, and a risk of the url pointing to a non existing document. 

    Does anyone have a solution (or a good workaround) for this problem?
