With NFS and similar products, you can create a network disk residing on
z/OS
for example , backup the PDF file on MF via tape driver and restore it on
windows.

What tape driver do you have? Let us start with that and see if that hardware
is compatible with z/OS and Windows.
What version of z/OS and Windows do you have?

To help me understand the request.

We have a tape robot (forget device type). We can share a 3592J drive
between the z and distributed systems. It is very important to be sure
the data is compatible between the systems. We use printable character
data and do the EBCDIC to ASCII translation on z/OS. Windows remains
