Question:I want to have a web page coded with HTML5, and I want to be able to put a PDF file onto this page so you can view it without having to click on any links to download it separately. Anyone know how to do this? I want it to keep the text, images, and layout of the PDF file also. If that weren't the case I would just use an image. Thanks!
This will be hopefully going onto the iPad. So it won't support adobe. I need to just find a way to somehow make the PDF file show up in an html5 page without using a PDF viewer. I want to keep all of its layers. It doesn't have to stay a PDF file when its on the page, I just need to find a way to transfer all of those layers there without having to do this manually with divs for each image, paragraph, etc.
