The sample is a PDF file that exploits CVE-2010-0188, a vulnerability in Adobe Reader related to XFA forms. The heuristic firings indicate that the file contains malicious JavaScript, as suggested by the ClamAV detection 'Js.Exploit.HTML-30'. The embedded URL is likely related to the XFA template. The script content, though obfuscated, appears to attempt to execute code.
