IIS does not care about the file extension, so the fact that you can open
the word document shows that IIS is perfectly able to serve files with a
single quote in the name. Whether the client-side viewer application can
handle it -- that is the client application's responsibility. This is also
consistent with your observations of other attempts at opening the document
(which are all duplicates since javascript, direct URL, and IIS navigation
are all exactly the same thing to IIS and client-side viewer application).
Now if you are running server-side software that is prejudiced against PDF
for some reason, you also need to figure that out since you're the one
running the software (server is only doing what you told it to).
