Hello Ramesh,

Thank you for contacting us!

Due to limitation of Silverlight, the file system is a subject of security restrictions. That is why you cannot open a file (in your case "C:\Ramesh\Books\Sample.pdf" ) from your local drive without using Open File Dialog. As far as our research shows, out-of-browser applications with elevated trust might allow you access to such files. 

In order to make the code you sent us work and load a file with Path PDFViewerTelerikDemoMVVM;component/SampleData/Pro.Silverlight.5.in.CSharp.4th.Edition.pdf you need to set the Build Action property of the pdf file to Resource.

Don't hesitate to contact us again!

Regards,
Svetoslav
