Tell us what you are trying to do?
We created a WP-Instance to sign our internal documents together with some workflow plugins. Sadly, there is no possibility to watch a preview of the document in the backend. So there is only a URL to the PDF-File, which my colleagues have to rightclick-open in a new tab.
It would be amazing if there would be some preview pictures or at least some clickable link to the PDF.
Is there any documentation that you are following?
I tried this out, but sadly I didn't get it working:

I added the code to my functions.php but nothing changed.
Here is a preview of what I'm thinking of:

It is an internal side only so i can't give u access, you could connect via TeamViewer to my computer for example.

You want to display PDF field value as a link in the back-end editing pages, yes?
You could do that by writing some JavaScript which added a new clickable link below the field using the field value as the href attribute.
Although the code is fairly simple, because this is a back end post edit screen, you would need to add the code to a .js file and enqueue that using admin_enqueue_scripts (see https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/admin_enqueue_scripts/).
