One problem is that Wine requires a full path in order
to find the Unix executable (e.g. /usr/bin/xpdf instead
of just xpdf).

The other problem is that ShellExecute converts the
filename to a Windows path which xpdf will not understand.

You'll need a wrapper script like this:

#!/bin/sh
xpdf `winepath -u $1`

and then register the fully qualified path to this script
as the handler for opening .pdf files.

If it still doesn't work run this command in the directory
where "help.pdf" resides:

  WINEDEBUG=trace+exec wine start help.pdf

and attach the output here.
