Normally the browser shows a PDF if an appropriate plugin is installed (Adobe PDF Reader or I think newly Flash).
You would use an
iframeif you only want to show it only in a part of your page. You might also take a look at some of the fancy Javascript UI toolkits out there in that case so that integration would work smoothly. I used the ManagedIFrame once and it worked okay so far.Another way would be to use a library like PDF Sharp to parse the PDF on the server and process it to your needs. You could convert it to single page images and make these available to browse then.
