Use regex, see below.

I showed you, thinking only external lings were to be sent to a new tab:

<script type='text/javascript'> 

'use strict'

function uu() {
   for (let lnk of document.links) {
      lnk.target = 
         (/^http/.test(lnk.href))
            ? '_blank'
            : '_self';
   };
};

window.onload = uu;

</script>

======================

try, if you want ONLY & ALL .pdf and .docx to have target='_blank' :

window.onload = function() {
   for (let lnk of document.links) {
      lnk.target = 
         (/.pdf$|.docx$/.test(lnk.href))
            ? '_blank'
            : '_self';
   };
};
