Hi,

Is there even a C drive on Mac in the first place?
And can't you use a relative path, rather than an absolute one?

Also, use Path.DirectorySeparatorChar, rather than hard-coding Windows
separators (ie: avoid "foo\\bar" or @"foo\bar"). Do it like this:
string myPath = "myFolder" + Path.DirectorySeparatorChar + "myFile.ext";

But couldn't you simply put your help.pdf file in the same folder as your
application, so you don't even have to worry about directory separators? Or
in a sub folder there?
