How do we block search engines from finding a PDF document with a Marketo URL as its domain?

We have PDF documents in our Marketo instance that we use for marketing offers. We expect people to fill out a form to access the documents. However, if you type in the name of the document in a search engine, the actual Marketo URL is easily visible. We don't want that. Is there a way for us to block those documents from showing up in search engine results, either via a robots.txt type file just for the Marketo info domain, or via some other mechanism in our Marketo settings? Thanks.

You would have to use robots.txt, but I am unsure if it's possible to add that to Marketo. You could try uploading it to your instance since all of that is visible to search.

You might also check if the PDF can add those settings too.
