There are many ways through which we can embed PDFs or other
documents like Microsoft Word, Spreadsheets, PowerPoint Slides, and Excel
Spreadsheets into our Blogger Blog. However, Google Docs is probably the most
authentic and reliable way of embedding the PDF documents in a website. In this
article, we will show you How to Embed PDFs or any other documents in Blogger
Blog Posts.
First, go to https://drive.google.com and Sign in with your Gmail or Google account so that you
have the admin privilege to the documents that you would upload from your
system hard drive.
After signing in to your Google account, the next thing is
to upload a PDF file from your system’s hard drive. On pressing the upload icon
from the left side panel a drop down menu will pop out which would consist of
two options i.e. File and Folder. Just select “File” and head to the next step.
Now it will inquire you to select the PDF (document) that
you want to embed on your website. Now press the open button and move to the next
step.
On pressing the open button a small upload wizard would
appear on the right side of your screen. It usually takes a minute or two to
upload, but it entirely depends upon the size of your file and the speed of
your internet connection.
Once uploading is finished, click on the file name and it
will take you to a new page. Before, you can embed the document you have to
change the permission of the file to the public. Thus, select the share button
displaying at the top right corner of your screen and change the permission of
the file from private to open.
Press change, and select “public on the web” so anyone on
the Internet can find and access. No sign-in required. Finally, press the Save
button to conclude the wizard. After changing the permission settings, now it’s
time to grab the embed code. From the quick access tool bar select File
>> Embed this PDF file. Now a new window will appear which would provide
you the Embed code, copy the whole code and proceed to the next step.
After copying the code go to Blogger.com >> Create a
new Post >> Select HTML Tab, and paste the code where you would like to
see the document to appear. Now within the code that you pasted few moments a
go search for /preview and replace it with /edit?usp=sharing. Now publish your
article, and that’s it.
By default, the width of the document is set to 640 pixels
while the height is set to 480 pixels. You can reduce the width and height
according to your need. You should now see a PDF attached to your blog posts
along with some significant options like download and etc.
Hope this helps!
