Hi Charles,
I use a PDF in my app for a manual.
In windows, at least, if you launch the PDF document and the user has Adobe Reader installed, then it is the default program for a PDF file and will automatically launch it. I don't know how it works on a Mac.

Subject: Using an internal file for PDF for manual


I have added a PDF file to my app. I want to show the PDF manual using the user's PDF application Preview on the Mac and Acrobat Reader on Windows. So far I have unable to use the Launch Document because of not knowing the path for a PDF added to the app. Does anybody know how to script to show a PDF manual from a menu?
