Is there a way to show a PDF file inside Post in Wordpress? I used the tag but if someone has Internet Download Manager the Dialog will appear to Download the PDF file and then if they click cancel they will not be able to see it, they can ONLY download it
Is there's a way to stop automatic download?
There are many plugins for that but the image quality is too bad.

You will never have same degree of control over PDF as over HTML page. – Rarst Commented Jun 23, 2014 at 14:15

Reset to default 1The only reliable cross browser solution is to embed the .pdf in a iframe.
add_filter('media_send_to_editor', 'my_pdf_embed', 20, 3);
function my_pdf_embed($html, $id) {
$attachment = get_post($id); //fetching attachment by $id passed through
$mime_type = $attachment->post_mime_type; //getting the mime-type
if ($mime_type == 'application/pdf') { //checking mime-type
$src = wp_get_attachment_url( $id );
//change the size to your liking
$html = '<iframe width="500" height="500" src="'.$src.'"></iframe>';
return $html; // return new $html
}
return $html;
}
The Embed PDF Plugin allows you to embed a pdf inside a viewer on your post or page.
