But I am getting error like this : Not allowed to load local resource: file:///D:/

Well... Your browser is not allowed to directly load that file from your harddrive. In your view you are probably getting something like this:

<img src="C:\xampp\htdocs\socialNet\public\uploads\joew.png" />

You need a URL for the browser to access this image. In your view you need something like:

The asset() function from Laravel creates a URL from the public folder and appends the param you give it. So this will create a URL like: http://localhost/public/uploads/joew.png

Edit: The folder you specified (storage_path) is probably not readable for the browser at all. Change the uploads to public_path('uploads') and it will be accessible.

Can add iframe in modal/popup.

<iframe src="https://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/tests/xhtml/testfiles/resources/pdf/dummy.pdf" width="600" height="780" style="position: absolute;top: 66px;bottom: 0px;right: 0px;width: 100%;border: none;margin: 0;padding: 0;overflow: hidden;z-index: 3;height: 100%;"></iframe>

based on your requirement you can style the parameter.

You can as well try this

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>
<head>
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
    <title>DisplayPDF</title>
    <link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
    <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
    <div class="container">

        <!-- Trigger the modal with a button -->
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-info btn-lg" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">Open Modal</button>
        <!-- Modal -->
        <div id="myModal" class="modal fade" role="dialog">
            <div class="modal-dialog modal-lg">

                <!-- Modal content-->
                <div class="modal-content">
                    <div class="modal-header">
                        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">&times;</button>
                        <h4 class="modal-title">Modal Header</h4>
                    </div>
                    <div class="modal-body">

                        <embed src="~file:///C:/Users/hp/Downloads/sb_finance.pdf" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="400px">

                        <div class="modal-footer">
                            <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
                        </div>

You can also embed the pdf inside the modal. Like this:

<embed src="sample.pdf" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="400px">

That worked for me

Sorry to disappoint you but one cannot just show the pdf inside a modal by default. It is not an intended behavior. Even using <iframe>, you cannot render the pdf inside the bootstrap modal. Also most of the hacks provided online does not support cross-browser. The more ideal way is to use plugins for the same and I will give you the links for few using which you can achieve what you want.

1) Checkout PDFObject JS,

<script src="https://github.com/pipwerks/PDFObject/blob/master/pdfobject.min.js"></script>

PDFObject embeds PDF files into HTML documents. Link.

2) Easy Modal Plugin for Bootstrap. Demo Snippet and Website

3) Using jQuery Dialog Modal Popup Window. Demo.

Hope it helped.
