iFraming External PDF Files (Currently empty element loaded)

[candideu]

Agreed, and it would be great to be able to embed external PDF files stored locally on the PC (like we can do for images and videos)

Besides iframes, some other ideas for syntax could be:

In markdown

![PDF name](<link-to-PDF>)

Using HTML <object>

<object data="link-to-file" type="application/pdf" width="100%" height="650"></object>

Using HTML <embed>

<embed src="link-to-pdf" type="application/pdf"/>

Transclude \ Embed external files (audio, videos, pdfs) present on the computer outside the vault

NOTE: this is a reorganization post. Add the possibility to Transclude \ Embed files present on the local computer. That is:  This already works for images. It’s possible to use drag-ctrl-drop to obtain the link. Simple linking is already supported.
