Displaying PDF file in a div or iFrame

Is there any way i can load PDF file (its contents) in a div or iFrame?

I have a bunch of PDF files on a server and, ideally, i need to have a button 'Show file' on a page, clicking on which will load the contents of selected file in a div(iFrame).

Google's gview is sometimes unresponsive and given 204 status. Here is the best free alternative. https://stackoverflow.com/a/66548544/2078462

You can also use google pdf view by using iframe on your page :

<iframe src="http://docs.google.com/gview?url=http://infolab.stanford.edu/pub/papers/google.pdf&embedded=true" style="width:600px; height:500px;" frameborder="0"></iframe>

Instead of this in above code :

http://infolab.stanford.edu/pub/papers/google.pdf

Use your own PDF file path.

You can view the demo here.

It's just a suggestion. No downvotes please.
