Backlinks and PDFs

Hi, we are trying to improve on the number of links to our website.
A supplier has added a PDF file which is case study to their website.
In the PDF it has a link to our website, will this count as a link or not?
Thanks

Google can crawl pdfs so it does count as a link however it's not the strongest link in the world.
