Welcome to Emacs, James!
By "the emacs.pdf" I assume you mean the GNU Emacs manual(?).
Here are some other resources that can help, in addition to help-gnu-emacs and
the Emacs manual (which is available in Emacs itself, using `C-h r' or Help >
Read the Emacs Manual):
* Guided Tour: http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/tour/
* Frequently Asked Questions (Help > Emacs FAQ)
* Tutorial (Help > Emacs Tutorial)
* Wiki: http://www.emacswiki.org
* Overview page: http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/
