Pdf in an iframe

How do you align a pdf file so it displays at the top of a webpage frame? It displays the pages centered in the frame.

Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind. If I test it with several browsers and it’s ok, can I assume it will be ok for others?
I found a workaround by using javascript to resize the frame, and some pdf options to remove the scrollbar, etc.
Thanks,

Is there a way to link to a pdf in a iframe and have the find box removed?

Hello folks...
We are working on a transcription process and would like to have the pdf in an iframe. The problem is that in order to make this as quick as possible for the transcriber, the iframe needs to be as small as possible. The find box comes up and takes up a lot of room. Is there a way to turn that off automatically in the iframe source? Kind of like "zoom=100" but perhaps find=off or something like that. The find is actually pointless anyway since there is no text on the pdfs.
And what about the navigation panel on the left as well (not as big an issue)?
Thanks in advance
bardman

nevermind...i found it myself. I found toolbar=0, and removed the entire tool bar. Thanks anyway....

Saving a pdf in an iframe with specific name

Hi,
in our application there is an iframe which displays different pdf depending of the situation. As source we use URLs.
If the user want to save the pdf within the iframe it suggest always a default name. Is it possible that it suggest a specific name for each pdf? I can't find any attributes to deliver a desired name. Or maybe an iFrame is the wrong ui element for this demand?
Thanks, regards
Susanne

Hi Susanne
You can append time ahead of the pdf, so that name of pdf would never be same.
code would be like this -
java.util.Calendar calendar = java.util.Calendar.getInstance();
String currentTimeInLong = "" + calendar.getTimeInMillis();
and append this string ahead of your pdf. You can give a try.

Sen

PDF in an Iframe causes Fire Fox to crash

When a page is loaded with a PDF in an Iframe, Fire Fox crashes almost instantly. It appears that this is a known issue?
In what release is this expected to be fixed?
Thanks

Those are problems with the Flash plugin.
See http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/e2fdb0a7-0986-4164-9be5-10f852100625
Do those messages have Flash objects embedded?

Firefox 4.0 support for printing embedded PDF files in iFrames via JavaScript

I recently upgraded to Firefox 4.0 and can no longer print embedded PDF documents contained in an iFrame.
My company's web application has several pages which load PDF files from a Servlet into an iFrame. The pages in question all have "Print" buttons which when clicked executes a JavaScript function to obtain reference to the iframe containing the PDF, place it into focus() (e.g., frames['pdfdoc'].focus();), and invoke print() (e.g., frames['pdfdoc'].print();). There are no errors, or exceptions caught when the JavaScript function is invoked, but the "Print" button is no longer operational.
Does Firefox 4.0 no longer support iFrames? The issue goes away if I revert back to ver 3.6.16

I have same issue for printing embedded PDF files in iFrames via JavaScript in Firefox 5.0.
In previous versions it was working fine. But not in Firefox 4.0/5.0.
Is there any solution for this problem?

Inline XML Publisher PDF rendered using IFRAME in Self Service

Hi,
We have created an XML Publisher Report (PDF) which renders inline in a SelfService Page.
When we click on the Save Icon in the IFRAME, The File Name is really long including the Applications URL, DBC File, File Name etc.
Ex: http___it21.marvell.com_8005_OA_HTML_xdo_doc_display.jsp_dbcName=it21_devt&fileName=MVL_HR_EMP_APPRAISAL_DETAIL-1163094244_out.pdf.pdf&mFileLength=50068&p_output=_devt_prod_prodcomn_html_fwk_t_MVL_HR_EMP_APPRAISAL_DETAIL-1163094244_out.pdf
The requirement is to change the File Name to PerformanceAppraisal.pdf
Below is the code used to render the inline PDF.
- The XMLString has the complete XML generated.
public void renderInlinePDF(OAPageContext pageContext, OAWebBean webBean, OAApplicationModule am, String XMLString, String templateName)
System.out.println("---MVLReviewPerformanceXMLUtil.renderInlinePDF----------------- XMLString "+ XMLString);
System.out.println("---MVLReviewPerformanceXMLUtil.renderInlinePDF----------------- templateName "+ templateName);
BlobDomain xmlData = new BlobDomain(XMLString.getBytes() );
pageContext.writeDiagnostics(pageContext, "------------- xmlData : "+xmlData.toString(), 4);
pageContext.writeDiagnostics(pageContext, "------------------------------------------------------------------- ", 4);
String redirectURL = null;
try
pageContext.writeDiagnostics(pageContext, "------------- redirectURL 1 : "+redirectURL, 4);
redirectURL = DocumentHelper.getOutputURL(
pageContext
,"XXGT"
,templateName
,xmlData.getBinaryStream()
,"PDF"
,null
,"en"
,"US"
pageContext.writeDiagnostics(pageContext, "------------- redirectURL 2 : "+redirectURL, 4);
System.out.println("---MVLReviewPerformanceXMLUtil---------------------------- redirectURL = "+ redirectURL);
catch(Exception e )
throw new OAException("Error in redirect");
OAHTMLWebBean frame=(OAHTMLWebBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("IFRAME");
pageContext.writeDiagnostics(pageContext, "------------- IFRAME is NULL"+frame, 4);
if (frame == null)
pageContext.writeDiagnostics(pageContext, "------------- IFRAME is NULL", 4);
OAHTMLWebBean outRegion = (OAHTMLWebBean)createWebBean(pageContext,HTML_WEB_BEAN, null, "IFRAME");
outRegion.setHTMLAttributeValue("src",redirectURL);
outRegion.setHTMLAttributeValue("width", "100%");
outRegion.setHTMLAttributeValue("height", "100%");
outRegion.setHTMLAttributeValue("title","PerformanceReview");
outRegion.setHTMLAttributeValue("name","PerformanceReview");
OAWebBean iFramePlaceHolder = (OAWebBean) webBean.findChildRecursive("IFrameRegionPlaceHolder");
iFramePlaceHolder.addIndexedChild(outRegion);
// pageContext.getPageLayoutBean().addIndexedChild(outRegion);
pageContext.writeDiagnostics(pageContext, "------------- IFRAME AddIndexedChild", 4);
XML Publisher version 5.6.3
Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sujay

Thanks Balusc!!
I have made use of your code to display PDF files in an IFRAME tag too!!! I just dint believe that this would be possible. Please just take a look at my JSP page.
<h:form id="CaseLookUp">
     <%
     String path = request.getContextPath()+"";
     out.print(path);
     %>
<iframe scrolling="auto" src="<%=path%>/imageServlet?file=D:\70-229 V5.pdf" width="80%" height="600" ></iframe>
     </h:form>

Display of PDF Files in iFrames

Hi,
I am using iFrames to supplement the original content of my HTML file with additional PDF material and have problems with the display of these iFrames within the CHM file. I am using RoboHelp HTML 10.
Basically I created topics with text and a single iFrame per topic. These iFrames are intended to display handouts that we use for our training courses directly in the help system.
Topic preview display as expected, i.e. with the PDF content actually embeded in the topic as desired. The problem I have is that these topics display differently once the CHM has been generated. On opening the topic, the PDF content displays in a separate Adobe Reader window, while the frame remains empty.
Are there ways to get PDF things displayed as I wish in the iFrames ? Your kind help would be much appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Stephane

PDF Form in IFrame

I have an IFrame as part of my web application which is opening a PDF form specified from a XPD file. But the PDF form takes over then entire browser not just the IFrame I wanted to load it in losing the rest of the application's structure. Is there any way to target the current Iframe?

Hi,
Yes. it´s possible.
I´ve done it using an IFRAME declared on a JSP page. Just set the properties WIDTH and HEIGHT to make the IFRAME the size that you want... and set the scrolling property to be AUTO... in order to let you see the whole document with scroll bar , if needed...
What i did was to get a login page to let the user open a specific pdf... my page had a form where the user should enter the password to access the form...the form had two attributes ... "Action" was set to the address whre the servlet will render the pdf ... "target" was set to the IFRAME´s name...
Just put the iframe on a specific area on the page...
I don´t know if it´s what you want ...
Thanks

Any way to embed web page in PDF page - like IFRAME

Is there any way in Acrobat to embed a web page within a PDF page - similar to an IFRAME in an HTML page?

Links to named destinations in IFRAME positioning the PDF a page and half past

I created a PDF file w/ named destinations so that I can allow the Internet user w/ browser and Acrobat Reader plug-in to link to specific sections of the PDF. The zoom is set to Fit Horizontally, and the position is the top of the page in my example PDF. I used Acrobat Pro 8.1 to create the PDF.
Problem is when trying to load the PDF into an IFRAME, displayed with the named destination using a tag like:
<a href="http://ekensqldev5/ePadmin/documents/Raw.pdf?rand=1000#view=FitH&nameddest=Mission" target="myframe" >Click 1 </a>
When clicking on the link to the named destination, the .pdf is loaded or reloaded into an IFRAME and the page with the named destination is usually correctly displayed. Only in IE 6,7,8 the pdf will frequently (about 1 out of 4 times) be positioned a page and a half past the named destination. Clicking to a different link, and then back to the original link will usually reposition the PDF correctly. Chrome and Firefox always position the PDF exactly to the named destination. I'd like to know how to create the named destination so that it will always be positioned correctly, or to use a different link that will always position correctly. I'm using Reader 9.1.2
HTML:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="-1">
</head>
<body>
<p>
<a href="http://ekensqldev5/ePadmin/documents/Raw.pdf?rand=1000#view=FitH&nameddest=Mission" target="myframe" >Click 1 </a> <p>
<a href="http://ekensqldev5/ePadmin/documents/Raw.pdf?rand=1100#view=FitH&nameddest=Highlights" target="myframe">Click 2 </a> <p>
<a href="http://ekensqldev5/ePadmin/documents/Raw.pdf?rand=1200#view=FitH&nameddest=Trustees" target="myframe">Click 3</a> <p>
<a href="http://ekensqldev5/ePadmin/documents/Raw.pdf?rand=1201#view=FitH&nameddest=Statement_of_Op erations" target="myframe">Click 4</a> <p>
<a href="http://intranet" target="myframe">Click 5</a> <p>
<iframe name="myframe" width="100%" height="800">
</iframe>
</body>
</html>

I'm working with Lyle on this, and I have done some additional testing.
What I found is that the positioning for named destinations seems to work ok with IE8 when the html page and pdf file are located on one of our external web servers (rather than local intranet servers).
I am wondering if this is due to the latency involved in downloading the file, allowing the DOM to register the plugin?
I've posted a query at Microsoft's forum, but they are pointing me back to Adobe...saying they cannot know how the plugin handles rendering...even though I responded that it seems to work across the board with Firefox and Chrome.
Here is my thread in the Microsoft forum.

Get rid of the "fill & Sign"-pane when opening pdf in iframe

hi,
I try to open a pdf in an iframe, but as it is a signed one, the pane "Fill & Sign" opens automatically, reducing the size of my document enormously. As the user can't switch the pane off (the viewer is protected), I want to get rid of this pane.
I saw some topics changing the registry to disable fill & sign completely, but this is not what I want. If necessary, if should be possible to sign documents using the viewer, but for the files I open in my web site, I want to see them without the pane.
I use Adobe Reader XI ( 11.0.09).

You could try this solution posted here http://superuser.com/questions/558692/hiding-tools-comment-and-sign-buttons-in-adobe-reade r-xi.
In adobe reader installation folder (typically C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0) Find the sub-folder Reader\Services.
Remove files "DEXEchoSign.spi" and "DEXShare.spi" (I added .bak to the name in mine)
This removes the Tools and Share toolbar options. I have not found a way to remove "Comment" yet.
That worked for me in Reader XI, not sure if it will help you with iFrame.

How to change pdf page in an iframe content automatically

I open a pdf in my web page with <iframe> and the pdf-option for example #page=2 equals week number 2 of a year.
How could I change the viewable page as a function of the actual week number of a year (#1 - 52)
At the moment my html code looks like:
<div id="tr-inside_anw2">
    <iframe class="org_pdf_anw"
    src="attendance.pdf#page=2"></iframe>
</div>
Is there a way to use a variable for the week number? or is it better to use a javascript "function dayofweek_iframe()"
which changes the whole iframe content?
Is there somebody, who know a solution with code? Thanks

Thanks, it worked on my Mac apps. But the problem is that the new numeration is not recognized by my PDF Reader on iPad (goodnotes), so numeration starts from 1...

Smart Form as PDF within iframe

Hi all,
the problem i'm facing today is that i can't display a SMART FORM as a PDF in an <iframe> Tag.
If i call a simple PDF (which is stored on my PC as a local file) everything works fine and the PDF is
shown within the iframe Tag.
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
Test<p>
<iframe src="C:Test.pdf" width="90%" height="400" name="test"></iframe>
</body>
</html>
If i try to do the same with my test BSP the PDF is not shown within iframe Tag. Instead the iframe Tag
stays empty and the PDF is called directly by the Adobe Reader and not by my Browser (IE7).

cached_response->set_header_field( name = if_http_header_fields=>content_type

                                       response = cached_response ).
return.
now in the layout use display_url as the src for iframe

How to display Pdf file in iPad site

Hi
How to display Pdf file in web page which can able to view in iPad safari?
Thanks,
Arun

You can't really.
You need to use DHTML in the swf-wrapper HTML file, usually a
division wrapped iFrame, and load the PDF into the iFrame as an
overlay to the Flash.

Pdf display issues in IE.

I seem to have a tricky issue with displaying pdf through a java servlet in IE. The pdf displays properly when i hit the servlet for the first time; but when i try to open a new window I get a blank screen. I see in the browser status that the pdf is downloading but nothing appears in the IE7 browser window. There is no such issue in firefox or safari. I have a pretty standard generic servlet to display all content files and not just pdf files. I can post the code if required. Let me know if any ideas on how to debug/solve this ?

Thanks for the pointers. I havent had the chance to debug a lot. but after seeing your comment it does look like some kind of caching or session related issue. So if you open a completely new IE browser window then the pdf opens up fine but not from the same window (in a new tab) ? Unfortunately we have a the pdf in a iframe in our portal and a link to open the pdf in a new window !!
