Yes, PDFviewer.
AFAIU, it is only possible to refer to a specific page:
\href[page=X]{test.pdf}

I mean that ox-publish is mostly polished for html publishing.
While it is technically possible to publish with other export backends,
I expect many rough edges there.

In particular, `org-latex-publish-to-pdf' in ox-latex has no special
arrangement to support pdf cross-references. There is even no conversion
from .org references to .pdf references as .org -> .html in ox-html.
