== Server Side * Use pdf2html tool and then transmit html () * Convert pdf to images and then transmit ( http://vuzit.com/ use vyzit APIs ) * Use flash (Slideshare) (Worst possible option) (not at all recommended) == Client Side * not suggested but It may be possible to read pdf as base64 string and then parse to display it online. As, Open Document format as full xml formats , It is very much possible to parse xml of office documents and then display it in browser. Two possibilities of rendering. ** XSLT transformations of office xml ** JS parsing and then display reading about XSL-FO is suggested @Mozilla I suggest for native implementation of odt/odp viewing in browser. itself --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Do you have another question?
