you can use info load like below.

Here in this example I'm loading the paths to two pdf files available on Qlik community.

Info LOAD *;

LOAD * Inline [

id, file

1,https://community.qlik.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadBody/8239-102-2-11424/QlikView%20Server%20Reference%20Manual_ENG.pdf

2,https://community.qlik.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadBody/8238-102-1-11423/QlikView%2011.2%20SR10%20System%20Requirements.pdf

];

In the UI create a list box for the field id.

Whenever user selects a field value the "info" icon appears on the caption and then clicking on the icon will open the respective PDF file in the browser.

You can use the PDF Title names instead of numbers as field values of the "id" field.

If you open the readpdf.qvw then you can find a table that lists the pdf titles. whenever you click on one of them then it opens the PDF.

If you look at the load script then you will find an inline table with two fields title and url link to the pdf file.
