UIApplication sharedApplication openURL does not work with File:// (load local pdf file)?

This does not work

NSString *myPDF = @"file:///Users/sm/Documents/doc.pdf";

This works

NSString *myPDF = @"http://www.site.org/doc.pdf";   

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString: myPDF]];

So should I create a web view and load the pdf on the web view?
