Link to PDF.
Frontpage
Hyperlink to page numbers
The article tells how to link to named locations, but in most cases all you'll need is the page number:

Linking To Specific Pages
This is significantly simpler than linking to named destinations because it doesn't require any special steps to be taken in the preparation of the PDF file. I personally favor the page-linking method for this reason. In order to link through to a specific PDF page, begin with the domain, as you would for any web link: http://www.mydomain.com/
Then add the name of the PDF document: http://www.mydomain.com/myPDF.pdf
Then append "#page=" followed by the desired page number. For example, if you were looking to link to page 7: http://www.mydomain.com/myPDF.pdf#page=7
So in all, the HTML link code would be: <a href="http://www.mydomain.com/myPDF.pdf#page=7">Link text</a>
