Auto Executable for PDF file

Hi there, am totally new at creating an executable for a PDF file.

I have created a PDF file and placed it on a CD. Now, I want to be able to have this PDF file automatically open up in any computer when it is inserted in a computer just like when you purchase software, take it home and install it.

I tried something with an .inf extension but it does not retrieve MY PDF file, it just opens the a Windows window. At this point you make a selection. Is there a way to have it pop open automatically on any computer??? Is there some good software out there that I can purchase if needed that will not include the other company's information when retrieving the information???

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AutoRun. Just sticking something on your CD with .inf doesn't serve any purpose.
