How to open a PDF file from Java app?

807605Oct 4 2007 — edited Oct 5 2007

Hello!

I wanted to know if it is possible to launch a PDF file from Java application. Basically, I wrote a Java program, and I want to attach a PDF ReadMe file to the Help button in my program. When the user clicks the help button, the program will open a PDF ReadMe file in a default PDF Reader (most likely Adobe Reader). I'm not quite sure how to do this.

Thank you in advance!
