Hi,

I'd like to have a help link on power app when user click on it. Then, it will open a help document (world document format). What is best way to do it?

Try one of these two options and see if it helps:

1) If it is a URL, then on the OnSelect of that Button, use Launch

Launch

Launches a webpage or a canvas app. The function supports:

Address (required), the URL of the webpage or App ID of the canvas app.

Parameters (optional), named values to pass to the webpage or canvas app. In a canvas app, parameters can be read with the Param function.

Target (optional), the browser tab in which to launch the webpage or canvas app.

Launch can only be used in behavior formulas.

Address

Webpages are launched via a URL address. For example:

Power Apps

Launch( "https://bing.com" )

2) if it is a PDF document, the above may work, but as alternative, you may also want instead to Navigate to a screen with a PDF Viewer control on it.
