Open local acrobat from web browser with specified remote source file

Hi! We are developing a web-application where we open documents stored on sharepoint/onedrive. We aim to be able to open the document both in the browser and from the desktop/mobile app. For the office applications this is a breeze, with the Office URI Scema's.

 

Here is an example where we open ms-word, "streaming" the document from sharepoint with autosave.

window.open("ms-word:ofe|u|https://sharepointtennant.com/path/to/file.docx"'_blank');
 
I know I can open acrobat like this:
 
window.open("acrobat:", _blank)
 
However, i cant find any documentation for opening it with a specifed file; something like this:
 
window.open("acrobat:ofe|u|https://sharepointtennant.com/path/to/file.pdf"'_blank');
 

I've seen older posts (from 2012 and 2016) without any answers.

 

Help anybody!

 

Thanks
