Hi Michael,
Certain modern browsers can be have files <embed>ed into the page.

You can also look at using Google Docs Viewer
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Document+Preview+with+Google+Docs+viewer
There is also an add-on called Document Streaming that will allow you to
embed the document into your page

We need our documents to always be displayed within a standard template that

I think Google will typically still link directly to the PDF (if thats the
most relevant hit for the query).
It might be worth experimenting with some type of redirect where requests
directly for the PDF, from referrer of Google will get the item page in your
repository with the PDF already open/embedded.
