How to create link to pdf files

Word 365. It seems that the only links that can be created in a document are for Word documents. Is there a way to create a link to a pdf file?

Do you mean something other than inserting a hyperlink, which can be Control+Clicked on?

No, that's exactly what I mean.

It's been working for me. There may be an issue with your security settings? Are you getting a popup saying "this location may be unsafe..."? Or are you getting "Cannot open the specified file"? I got the latter when I didn't have the correct link.

Are you creating it by going to Insert/Links? Or just typing it in?
