Answers.Body: <p>You can create a simple form and if the user submits he gets redirect to the thank you page with the download link. 
  Another option is, to send the user the download link via the entered mail. I think that will save you more from trash mails. </p>

Body: <p>For Wordpress there's a plugin called Email before download (<a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/email-before-download/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://wordpress.org/plugins/email-before-download/</a>).
  I'd like to ask the user's email address before they are able to download a pdf file.
  Is there a plugin that can do this in Craft?
  Anyone wants to share their experience for best practices?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
