How do I load a PDF and have it open automatically in the course rather than the student having to download it and read it separately?

Hi  @karenmoreau 

The following document may be helpful What types of files can be previewed in Canvas? 

I just tested this in my instance of Canvas by uploading a PDF file into a module in my sandbox. It opened for preview quite nicely.

There is a disclaimer in the guide that "Canvas supports previews for documents up to 100 MB and 999 pages."

Perhaps somebody else has an answer.
