You would need to include the entire path to the pdf. Here is a link to some more information on the PDF Viewer in our users manual

Dear Greg,
Thanks for your fast replay. i put the path of the file but when i launch as the client from different PC it not appear.
my IP xx.x.x.x for the PC which gateway installed and my file path is D:/drawing.pdf.
Thanks
Tamer
You would have to put the file on a network shared drive that all client PCs could access in order to view the file from each client. You might get some ideas on how to do this from this post

What is the actual link to the file you used?
The problem was found in the OP file location. Once the file location was entered correctly it worked properly.
