Embedding PDFs in your custom webpage with Google Viewer

The basic code is the following:
Code:
<iframe src="http://docs.google.com/gview?url=http://example.com/mypdf.pdf&embedded=true" style="width:718px; height:700px;" frameborder="0"></iframe>

Replace example.com/mypdf.pdf with a URL to your PDF. Unfortunately, FTH does not provide a way to upload and directly link to a PDF like this, so your PDF has to be hosted somewhere else that will provide a direct link, such as Google Drive, Box, or Dropbox.

Here is an example of this on our test website using a PDF of a newsletter from my club:
brian.toastmastersclubs.org/index.cgi?lo...bVjzC3j9CB2f7bakgF4j
(scroll down to see the embedded Google viewer)

Another alternate approach to this is to convert the PDF pages to jpegs and upload them to a slideshow viewer like the Flikr viewer.
