Issue :
The section [2.23] Reduce the Impact of Downloadable or Physical Documents has interesting criteria:

  • Design documents to limit the printing impact. If the production of paper documents is essential, it
    should be designed to limit its impact to the lowest possible. Create a CSS Print stylesheet and
    test it with different types of content. Ensure PDF printing is encouraged over paper-based
    storage.
  • Offer optimized, compressed documents in a variety of accessible file formats.
  • Clearly display the document name, a summary, the file size, and the format, allowing the visitor a
    choice if possible of both the format, and the language (if not the same as the web page).
    Furthermore, be sure to avoid embedding the document within Web pages (provide a direct link to
    download or view within the browser instead).

These one are focus on the impact of the front (printing impact, small size of the document, direct link... ). I think it is also useful to reduce the impact on the return side.

Solution :
To add a criterion to propose to optimise the generation of the document on the back side :

  • Prefer to generate the document one time, (not one time by click on the link)
  • Host it on the free cookies domain.

🎁 On the front side, it can also be useful to specify not to load the document on the page :

Note

  • Don't hesitate to explain the procedure to me if I have followed it incorrectly (the section contributing guidelines is a bit empty :)
  • If you have any further comments, don't hesistate to add it below !
  • Sorry about my english :)

Agreed this makes sense, I'll add a Success Criteria on Optimizing Delivery covering generation and hosting.
Regarding the front-side matter, it's covered within SC "Labels and Choice" - "Furthermore, be sure to avoid embedding the document within Web pages".
The update will be reflected within the next draft.
