Is there any way to embed a pdf file into an html5 page?

I want to have a web page coded with HTML5, and I want to be able to put a pdf file onto this page so you can view it without having to click on any links to down开发者_开发问答load it separately. Anyone know how to do this? I want it to keep the text, images, and layout of the pdf file also. If that weren't the case I would just use an image. Thanks!

Edit: This will be hopefully going onto the ipad. So it won't support adobe. I need to just find a way to somehow make the pdf file show up in an html5 page without using a viewer. I want to keep all of its layers. It doesn't have to stay a pdf file when its on the page, I just need to find a way to transfer all of those layers there without having to do this manually with divs for each image, paragraph, etc.

I don't think this is possible without using Flash. Instead, you might want to convert the PDF to a different format (HTML for example) that can be rendered by the browser. There are tools that can do this from the command line, so making a script to do it on your site won't be too difficult.

You can use the embed tag like this:

<embed src="/path/to/your/file.pdf" />

Maybe you could convert the pdf to images on the server and display the images instead of the original pdf. As far as i know, Apache pdfbox can be used to do such a convert.

A little bit late and maybe issuu is gonna fix it soon but for now you can embed with issuu.com using an iframe and your magazine address ending in ?mode=mobile. Tested in ipad:

<iframe width="850px" height="580px" src="http://www.issuu.com/your_username/docs/your_magazine_name?mode=mobile" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I would like same mobile version loading in desktop so there is no advertising. If you know how to make the browser to think it's an ipad let me know.

This code would directly embed a pdf viewer in a webpage

<object data="path to pdf " type="application/pdf" width="100" height="100">
  <p>Alternative text - include a link <a href="path to pdf">to the PDF!</a></p>
</object>

If you are using ASP.NET, this link may be of interest to you.

PDFObject looks promising, but it doesn't work on iPads at the moment.
