This template is designed to include a link to the appropriate download site

{{Download
|exchange =
|id =
|vers =
|text = 
}}

exchange - the name of the exchange. Can be; LEX, STEX, TPP or PLEX.
id - the id of the lot on that exchange if Exchange isnt specified, ID is the full URL.
vers - the version, so Mac or PC normally (optional)

If the download link doesn't have an exchange then simply type the address in the id.

[{{{id}}} Download Here]

Get the url to a file on the exchange (for example: http://www.theplanningpages.com/community/downloads.php?do=file&id=15 is a link to a file on TPP) and remove the unique identifier (usualy prefixed by id= ) with {{{id}}}.
Find/make an acronym for that exchange that is unique.
Add this before (}} Download Here]) in the <includeonly> section:
```
| acronym = link-with-id
```

eg:

| TPP = http://www.theplanningpages.com/community/downloads.php?do=file&id={{{id}}}
