Well, I have the file, but I have no idea what to do with it. I see SEVERAL jars in there, as well as one executable file, and aren't about to run any of them since I have no idea what they are or what they're supposed to do.

So you're going to have to explain anyway.

It could create a pdf file in a temporary folder and tell windows to open it, perhaps. It wouldn't have to generate the PDF, it could have it in an archive somewhere.

NO i extracted the jar file out, and search for the pdf, and it won't find anything I tried that already.

When you double-click on the executable jar file, it creates a subdirectory called "CS170-PQ" in your current directory. This subdirectory has, amongst other files, a pdf file called "instructions.pdf". This is the pdf file that is launched initially.

As to where this subdirectory and pdf file are coming from, it appears that they are created, on the fly, by one or more of the Java class files.
