Upload files failed by Google drive,search solution

Question:I have been looking for quite some time and cannot seem to find the answer I need. I tried using the iframe tag method for Google Docs Viewer to view my files and noticed that pptx, xlsx, etc... PDF seems to be the only one that is visible. So I came to the conclusion I have to use Google Drive and it's API. If that is so, my question is... Can I keep these files hosted on my clients server and use the API to view the files or do they have to be hosted on Google Drive's cloud server? Is there other solutions on VeryPDF? Thank you.

Answer: When upload files failed by Google Docs Viewer, maybe you can have a free trial of VeryPDF ShareFile which also allows you to embed uploaded file using iframe tag method and supported file formats like pptx, xlsx, PDF and others. It also allows you to view Office file online and then edit them, annotate them. By this one you do not need to host those file on your clients server and then use the API to view the files. Simply upload file on this website, then all your clients and your friends can view Office file online easily. And uploaded files are absolutely safe, only those who know the share ID then they can view the uploaded file.  Please check more information on homepage, in the following part, I will show you how to view Office file online and then embed by iframe code.
