Lightning button for a VF page which renders a PDF

I have written a lightning cmp and controller for a button which calls a VF pagw which renders PDF

CMP 
<aura:component implements="force:lightningQuickAction" >
   <lightning:button label="PDF" 
        onclick="{!c.PDF}" />
</aura:component>

Controller : 
/* Component controller */
({
 PDF : function(sforce.one.navigateToURL('/apex/Letter?Parameter1=data1'));

})

I'm unable to save my controller as its throwing an error msg

VF page 
<apex:page controller="MyController" renderAs="pdf" applyBodyTag="false">
<head>
<style>
body { font-family: 'Arial Unicode MS'; }

@page{
    size: letter;
    margin:10%;
    @top-left{
        content: "Dear,";
        font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
        font-size: 12px;
    }
    @bottom-right{
        content: "Yours Sincerely,";
        font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
        font-size: 10px;
    }
}

body {
        font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
        font-size: 11px;
}
    </style>
</head>
    <div align="right"><strong>Date</strong>: {!DAY(Today())} {!CASE(MONTH(Today()), 1, 'January', 2, 'February', 3, 'March', 4, 'April', 5, 'May', 6, 'June', 7, 'July', 8, 'August', 9, 'September', 10, 'October', 11, 'November', 12, 'December', 'Unknown')} {!YEAR(Today())}</div>
<center>
    <h1> Letter</h1>
    </center>
    <p>{!custom_object__C.Name__C}</p>    
</apex:page>

​Custom Button:


window.open("apex/Letter?Id={!Letter__c.Id}","_blank");

Thanks. 
I just changed my cmp code where I have used handle.click for my button, record.ID attribute for the page ID and have written a JS for my handle.click and record.ID in controller.
 

Then I have created a quick action for the button
