You are simply passing filename.pdf, right? (Instead of passing pdf as a parameter to acrobat executable)
Then pdf would be opened with whatever application it is registered to open with on that machine. If you want to use acrobat, then change the association (right click a pdf, properties- opens with).

When it is a browser, its name would normally use %20 for spaces and also other hex values for some characters.
