Default zoom for embedded PDF in Edge

I want to zoom in an embedded PDF. The PDF is embedded this way:

<embed width="500" height="800" src="/path/to/file.pdf" type="application/pdf"></embed>

I would like the PDF to be zoomed (e.g. 120%) when initialized. I know this is possible if the Adobe plugin is used in Internet Explorer. But in Edge, the default Edge plugin is being used and I can't find any option to achieve this.

Has anyone an idea if and how it is possible?

Looks like it is not possible to zoom the embedded PDF for MS Edge (EDGE HTML) browser.

If you are available to use MS Edge (Chromium) browser then you can zoom the PDF by adding the zoom argument to file name.

 <embed width="500" height="800" src="http://www.africau.edu/images/default/sample.pdf?#zoom=120" type="application/pdf"></embed>

Example:

 <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
      <head>
        <title>Title of the document</title>
      </head>
      <body>
       <iframe width="500" height="800" src="http://www.africau.edu/images/default/sample.pdf?#zoom=120"></iframe>
       <object width="500" height="800" data="http://www.africau.edu/images/default/sample.pdf?#zoom=120" type="application/pdf"></object>
       <embed width="500" height="800" src="http://www.africau.edu/images/default/sample.pdf?#zoom=120" type="application/pdf"></embed>
      </body>
    </html>

Output in MS Edge (Chromium) browser:
