XML stands for Extensible Markup Language.

In short, it is a text-based format for different systems to present structured data to each other. Structured data means the data describes the characteristics of some sort of hierarchy. An example of hierarchical data is a company that has a name and multiple employees that each have names and phone numbers. A list of the company and its employee information could easily be represented with XML. Here is how that might look:

Conglomo John Doe 111-222-3333 Sally Sue 111-222-4444

XML is whitespace insensitive, meaning that any spaces or newlines are ignored, and (if present) are only for aiding human interpretation of the text.

XML is "extensible" because it is a language that allows you to extend and customize it. Languages that are based on the XML standard include XHTML, Atom, RSS, and ODF.

xml is a flexible way to create common information formats and share both the format and the data on the World Wide Web, intranets, and anywhere.

How do you submit related content of a page e.g. a pdf to Google without exposing the link to the pdf directly?

I hope you are aware of XML sitemaps. They are not for the user; rather these are especially crafted for the Search Engine Bot to index your pages. You can create a set of XMLs if you want. After you create these XML site maps you need to create a Google Web Master tools account and submit the site map. But if you don't want the user to click a link to reach the PDF then what use is it for? It is not fair practice to optimize for the bot and keeping the user away. It smells fishy to Google. So watch out.
