If I don't have a Google Drive, is there a way of finding the embed code of a PDF from a Sharepoint site? I have the steps below if you're using Google Drive, but wondering if similar steps could be used where files are stored on a Sharepoint site? #doc embed
- Upload the pdf file to Google Drive.
- Change the "Share" properties to "Anyone with the link can View".
- On Google Drive, open the pdf file.
- Click the settings in the upper right corner (the three vertical dots).
- From the dropdown menu, select "Open in a new window".
- In this new window, click the settings in the upper right corner (the three vertical dots).
- From the dropdown menu, select "Embed item".
- Highlight and copy the embed code.
- Go to the Canvas page where the pdf file will be embedded.
- Edit the page, and then click the HTML Editor link to edit the page's html code.
- Paste the embed code.
- Change the width and height to a size that allows the user to see the entire page.
For example: width="1200" height="1000"
