You should right click on the link and see what page it is actually linking
too.  Since you don't want the PDF page to be interpreted by IC I'd suggesst
making a link like so:

<a href="/directory for pdfs/[item-field pdf]">Link to schematic</a>

And put the PDF files in your html space, not in the IC catalog space.
