Hello Jerry. I don't use TB, but under Firefox you can set 
which helper applications are associated with a particular 
file type. Using Firefox will open the PDF for me with 
evince. Maybe you need to set the helper application under 
your TB preferences, so TB knows which program to use for 
viewing PDF's?

Kind Regards,

Keith Roberts
