I know that all browsers will read .pdf directly but I want it to be embed.

Is there any way?

Please help me..


If you give a link to the PDF on the web page, any browser will be able to download the file and then the user can open it in a PDF viewer of his choice.

If you want to embed the PDF document in a web page, then the browser needs to have a PDF plugin installed. This may not be the case with all browsers. The PDF will be displayed only if the PDF viewer application's plugin is registered with the browser.

The other way of embedding the PDF document is to use a server-side component that renders the PDF as ordinary HTML web page elements. Google has an embeddable PDF viewer.

Google Docs offers an undocumented feature that lets you embed PDF files and PowerPoint presentations in a web page. The files don't have to be uploaded to Google Docs, but they need to be available online.


You can also use Mozilla's pdf renderer written in javascript. It is rather complex getting started, but all options are there. It is the pdf reader available in Firefox and extensions exist for other browsers. Fun fact: It is by far the most starred library on github when searching for pdf.


Try using adobe pdf api, i found is very easy and compatible with all browsers. https://www.adobe.io/apis/documentcloud/dcsdk/pdf-embed.html
