Thanks!

\define linkpdf(title)
<object data="file:///C:/somefolder/somotherfolder/$title$.pdf" type=
"application/pdf" width="100%" height="500px"/>

\end

<$macrocall $name=linkpdf title={{!!filename}}/>

works nicely!

Adding quotes (<object data="{{!!path}}{{!!filename}}" ...) doesn't (that I
had already tried out after realizing {{!!path}}{{!!filename}} also didn't
work) - can it be the transclusion is ignored?

Cheers,
Ulrik
