This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client is developing a site and needs to upload a PDF in different languages for secondary languages using WPML. They can only see the option to translate the name of the file in media translation but not to change the media itself.
Solution:
We recommend following these steps:
1. From the top of the black bar, click on the flag for the other language (the one where the translation exists for the page where you want to use a different PDF).
2. Navigate to the main Pages list, hover your mouse over the desired page, and select "Edit with Elementor."
3. Once you're in Elementor, you should be able to edit the PDF URL and change it to the translated version of the PDF. Don't forget to save the page afterward.
