For MLA, see the links below from the MLA Style Center. 

For APA, there is no special PDF format.  Instead, do the following:

  1. Identify the type of source you’re citing (e.g., report, book, journal article, etc.).

  2. Create a citation using APA’s format for that source type.

  3. Include the PDF link. This is enough to indicate to the reader that this source is a PDF.
