There is a service on the Internet called PDFMeNot. It offers you the ability to view any pdf files without the need to have a PDF reader installed locally on your computer. This is great if you try to access a PDF file online on a public computer that does not have this reader installed and you have no permission to install it.
I like it for its embedded option. Basically, instead of posting a link of the pdf file on the webpage that requires the visitor to download the file and view it offline, I can embed the pdf file as an inline document. You can see an example below.
There is an inherit danger here though because for this to work, you must give permission to this website to have access to the PDF file. This is not an issue if the file in question contains no confidential info.
This embedded feature works on Internet Explorer7 and Firefox2 on a Windows PC.
The only code I put in this post is this:
