Many thanks to Brian and SparkOut on this thread.
This is turning out to be more complicated than I expected. I had
assumed that I could write something like "launch <application> with
variableContainingMyPDF" or something of that nature. Apparently not.
I think I can follow the instructions and read the docs, though much
of this is new to me, and rather over my head.
I wonder if I'm trying to do this the hard way. That's a specialty of
mine when it comes to writing scripts.
One easier alternative, apparently, is to try to get good results
displaying the PDF in a player. Any other possibilities?
Thanks again,
Tim

You can import the PDF files to your stack by:
put URL ("binfile:<the-path/name-of-your-file.pdf>") into
<thePDFStorageProperty>
On a Mac you should be able to display the pdf in a player, but on
Windows
even with QT enabled it won't render a pdf document. A workaround is
to
write out the file to a temporary location:
put <thePDFStorageProperty> into URL("binfile:<temporarypath/
name.pdf>")
and launch it, or use a revBrowser object to display within Rev.
