[tw] Re: Display PDF inside tiddler
Hi James
Try the embed tag http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_embed.asp instead:
Here's an example how to turn it into a macro:
[[$:/embedPDFmacro
http://xn--mns-ula.dk/udtalelser/hu/#%24%3A%2FembedPDFmacro]]
$:/tags/Macro:
\define pdfembed(url)
embed src='$url$' type=application/pdf width='100%' height='915'/
\end
Usage: pdfembed web adress or file path
You might even be able to leave out the type attribute and experiment with
other filetypes..

Hi Måns,
I am sorry to post a reply on the old threat.
I found your scripts really useful and it works on embedded PDF into TW5
very well.
However, I encounter a problem when I tried to embedded a local PDF file
in TW5. It pops up a download window instead of showing PDF in the
iframe. Would you mind to shed some lights on that?
Thanks.

Hi Bill
If you have a look at the Motovun Jack.pdf tiddler in edit mode you'll
see that it's a binary tiddler and that it's type is set to
application/pdf.
Maybe this all happens automagically when you drag a pdf on to a TW?
(import it into the TW document)
I don't know because I generally avoid embedding binary files in my TWs
not to create too big Tidddlywiki documents...
Instead I would create a tiddler and set the type to application/pdf
manually - simply write it in the type field if it doesn't appear in the
drop down list already.
Next I would create a new custom field: _canonical_uri and paste the
URL to my web hosted pdf document (click add - or it won't be created).
Usually I show pdfs via an iframe: iframe width=100% height=900
src=URL to my web hosted pdf document frameborder=0
allowfullscreen/iframe.
If I have a lot of pdfs to show I will create a global macro with the
iframe like this:
1) Create a tiddler called eg $:/_iframe/macro (It doesn't matter what
you call it)
2) Write something like this:
\define iframe(url)
iframe width=100% height=915 src=$url$ frameborder=0
allowfullscreen/iframe
\end
3) Tag it with $:/tags/Macro
Now I can create an iframe with my pdf like this: iframe URL to my web
hosted pdf document in any tiddler.
A more involved version of the above macro could look like this:
1)Tiddler title eg $:/_iframe2/macro/link/fullscreen
2) Write:
\define iframe2(url)
[ext[Link|$url$]] {{$:/core/ui/Buttons/full-screen}}
iframe width=100% height=900 src=$url$ frameborder=0
allowfullscreen/iframe
\end
3) Tag it with $:/tags/Macro
Now I can create an iframe with my pdf like this: iframe2 URL to my
web hosted pdf document in any tiddler.
I'll get a link to the pdf document and a button to open the tiddler in
full screen mode at the top of the iframed pdf document.
If I fetch all my pdfs from the same location I will add a location
snippet to the macro like this: src=http://MyWebAddress/$url$.pdf;
Then there is only very little to write: iframe filename.
Address and filetype is already set by the macro...
Hope some of this helps - enjoy :-)

Hi Bill,
Use the technique shown at http://tiddlywiki.com/#ExternalImages.
You need a special tiddler to represent the PDF within your wiki. Let's
say this tiddler is called *CoolPDF*. Set its type to *application/pdf*,
and add a field called *_canonical_uri* (with an initial underscore) with
*Cool.pdf* or whatever the file's called as its value. Both
*[img[MyCoolPDF]]* and *{{MyCoolPDF}}* should then work.
