  It does not answer why PDFs can have virus.

    It does. It literally says Yes.

    The article starts by unambiguously saying yes and later on gives examples: > PDFs, like other file formats, can have hidden JavaScript code that might exploit vulnerabilities in a PDF. and > Opening a malicious PDF can launch malware that will start up whatever process the hacker has in mind.
