Redirect a .pdf or .doc to a webpage

I'm working on a friend's website and he has downloadable pdfs and docs on his site. He wants webpages with text on them instead of these files. He wants to redirect the .pdf and .doc files to the webpages he designed to replace them.

Is there a way to redirect these files to the new pages?

Example pdf title: john.pdf Example page to redirect it to: john.html

Thank you for any ideas or help.

I figured it out, so I figured I should answer. Edit the htaccess file to add 301 redirects.

Redirect 301 /john.pdf /john.html
Redirect 301 /joe.doc /joe.html
