I have published a presentation to the web but cannot get
the hyperlinks to my .pdf documents to open in a separate
window so the user can easily switch between the acrobat
file and the presetation. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I'd think you'd have to manually edit the HTML code. Unfortunately, I don't know what exactly you'd have to put in there, though. Hopefully someone else will.
 
Echo is right - You will need to hand edit the HTML to make this change.
Open the HTML for each slide in Notepad. Search for the href for each PDF
file. After the filename in the href command but before the closing greater
than sign, add the following: target="_blank"

This will do what you want.
