Using an internal file for PDF for manual

[larry at significantplanet.org]

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.
