使用<a href> link

Question

I have a .pdf document in a folder called docs, that is inside of my WebContent folder.

I want to have a link to show the address to this file, so that when the user click it, he can see the document's content.

The code is this:

<a href="http://localhost:8080/Web/docs/jsftutorial.pdf">See document</a> 

When I execute it, I get the error:

HTTP Status 404 - /Web/docs/jsftutorial.pdf 

I tested this with a .txt file, and it works, but why not with a .pdf?

Thank you!!

I found a tutorial on how to Read and open the PDF in a new browser window here:
