Exporting or embedding a download feed to an external site

I know it's possible to embed the content of a block externally. How about the content of a download feed?

My reason for asking is that we have several very, very small local versions of ourselves. They're too small to justify our paying for several licenses, often having just one member. I know I could build them specific pages within my site but the challenge is that some of these have existed for over 100 years and will want to have their own address rather than be accessible as a sub-directory of our main site.

Their sites are going to be static web pages but they will want to upload their PDF newsletters. What I'd like to offer them is a folder within the Downloads app on the national site, and then allow them to upload their newsletter there, knowing it will feed through onto their own sites.

Is this possible? Is it just the case of building a block which takes its feed from that one Downloads folder and then generating the embed code for that?

With Pages, sure. You manually create a feed of files (based on category, author …) and that block can then be used on an external website. Needs to be set up by the admin though for every individual feed.
