When I try to open a PDF vignette (say a vignette from the survival
package)from the help system in R it does not open Preview. I cannot actually
open any PDF vignettes. All I get is a finder window with the error I
previously described. It asks me to select an appropriate viewer. Selecting
Preview opens nothing and more errors are thrown to the Console. I could send
you and Duncan screenshots off-list, since I know that theses lists are picky
about attachments.
The steps I take are:
1. Open the R app.
2. Start the Help system.
3. Navigate to the survival package vignettes.
4. Click the PDF link for the The survival package
Then the errors happen.
I will send a screenshot of the result off list.

I don't have Ventura installed (I'm still on Monterey 12.6.3), and
following the procedure you describe I get similar results.
On the other hand, if I choose Help | Vignettes I get a preview
in the R.app vignette window, then if I double click on it, it opens in
Acrobat reader (which is the default PDF viewer on my system).
