You should be able to have the pdf come up in the same window, but it will, of course, have the Adobe logo flash for a moment as it applies itself to the window. There's no way around that.I haven't used a .doc file like this, but you could put it in your web and link to it. Problem is, it would need to pull up a program on their pc to read it and they'd probably freak more over that than the pdf.
