    Is there a way to creat an Autorun inf file that lunch Acrobat reader and after Reader is open it automaticaly open the proper pdf file?
    this is what i have but is not working properly.

    //this is my INF file//
    //with this format I was able to click on CD drive and lunch reader but not the file.

    [autorun]
    open=AcroRd32.exe
    label=Assembly Manual Main Page.ICO

    //With this format it give me not responding error while reader is lunching.

    [autorun]
    open=AcroRd32.exe Assembly Manual.pdf
    label=Assembly Manual Main Page.ICO

    //I even try creating a subfoler and call it out like this too and still didn't work

    [autorun]
    open=AcroRd32.exe .\acrobat\Assembly Manual.pdf
    label=Assembly Manual Main Page.ICO

    any help are appreciated
    thanks a bunch ahead of time.

    I do it with an autorun.inf:-

    [autorun]
    shellexecute=START.pdf
    icon=Whatever.ico
    label=You Choose

    This way you need to put a copy of Shell.exe on the CD (obtainable from the www).

    Your launch pdf ('start' in my case) needs to be 8 characters max with no spaces or special characters.

    Here's how to do it if you want to run Reader from the CD. Course, you
    have to burn your Reader folder to the CD too.

    [autorun]
    open=Reader\AcroRd32.exe Binder\cover.pdf
    defaulticon=Reader\AcroRd32.exe,1
