Can someone tell me how I can make a button target a pdf file?

same way you would a normal url. add this code to the button  
instance:

```auto
 on (release) {
	getURL("http://www.domain.com/file.pdf");
}

```

OR to get to it from a relative path

```auto
on (release) {
	getURL("folder/file.pdf");
}

```

this applies to anything from a button. 🙂
