Step 1: Create a file like app/code/Magemonkeys/Custompdftab/registration.php

<?php 
\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::register(
    \Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::MODULE,
    'Magemonkeys_Custompdftab',
    __DIR__
);
?>

<?php

\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::register(

\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::MODULE,

'Magemonkeys_Custompdftab',

__DIR__

);

Step 2: Create a file like app/code/Magemonkeys/Custompdftab/etc/module.xml

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Module/etc/module.xsd">
    <module name="Magemonkeys_Custompdftab" setup_version="1.0.0">

            <module name="Magento_Catalog"/>
        </sequence>
    </module>
</config>

</sequence>

</module>

</config>

Step 3: Create a file like app/code/Magemonkeys/Custompdftab/Helper/Data.php

<?php

namespace Magemonkeys\Custompdftab\Helper;

use Magento\Framework\App\Helper\AbstractHelper;
use Magento\Framework\App\Helper\Context;

class Data extends AbstractHelper
{
    public function stringToTable($text, $colSeparator = '|', $rowSeparator = '||')
    {
        $rows = explode($rowSeparator, $text);
        if (!$rows) return false;
        $html = '<table>';
        foreach ($rows as $row) {
            if ($row) {
                $html .= '<tr>';
                $columns = explode($colSeparator, $row);
                $w=count($columns);
                foreach ($columns as $column) {
                    $html .= '<td style="width:'. 100/$w .'%">' . $column . '</td>';

        $_elements = '';

        if(strpos($applications,':') > 0) {
            $_items = explode('.',$applications);
            natcasesort($_items);
            foreach($_items as $_item){
                $_item = explode(':',$_item);

                if($_item[0] == '')
                    continue;

                $html .= '<ul class="applications">';
                $html .= trim($_item[0]).': ';
                $_elements = @explode($separator,$_item[1]);

        } else {
            $html .= '<ul class="applications">';
            $_items = explode($separator,$applications);
            natcasesort($_items);
            foreach ($_items as $_item){
                $html .= '<li>'.$_item.'</li>';
            }
            $html .= '</ul>';
        }

        return $html;

    }
}

<?php

namespace Magemonkeys\Custompdftab\Helper;

use Magento\Framework\App\Helper\AbstractHelper;

use Magento\Framework\App\Helper\Context;

class Data extends AbstractHelper

{

public function stringToTable($text, $colSeparator = '|', $rowSeparator = '||')

$html .= '</table>';

return $html;

}

public function applicationsRender($applications, $separator = "||"){

//echo 'called';exit;

if(!$applications)

return;

$html = '';

$_elements = '';

if(strpos($applications,':') > 0) {

$_items = explode('.',$applications);

natcasesort($_items);

foreach($_items as $_item){

if($_item[0] == '')

continue;

$html .= '<ul class="applications">';

natcasesort($_items);

foreach ($_items as $_item){

$html .= '<li>'.$_item.'</li>';

}

$html .= '</ul>';

}

return $html;

}

Step 4: Create a file like app/code/Magemonkeys/Custompdftab/view/frontend/layout/catalog_product_view.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
    <body>
        <referenceBlock name="product.info.details">
            <block class="Magento\Catalog\Block\Product\View" name="custom-tab" template="Magemonkeys_Custompdftab::product/view/details/custom_tab.phtml" group="detailed_info">
                <arguments>
                    <argument name="css_class" xsi:type="string">newtabclass</argument>
                    <argument translate="true" name="title" xsi:type="string">Documentatie</argument>
                    <argument name="sort_order" xsi:type="string">60</argument>
                </arguments>
            </block>

    </body>
</page>

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<body>

<argument name="css_class" xsi:type="string">newtabclass</argument>

<argument translate="true" name="title" xsi:type="string">Documentatie</argument>

</arguments>

</block>

</referenceBlock>

</body>

</page>

Step 5 : Create file like app/code/Magemonkeys/Custompdftab/view/frontend/templates/product/view/details/custom_tab.phtml

<a class="download-file" href="<?php echo $block->getBaseUrl(); ?>pub/media/catalog/product/file/<?php echo basename($file) ?>" target="_blank"><?php echo str_replace('.pdf', '', $file) ?></a>
