You can have an iframe inside the modal markup and give the src attribute of it as the link to your pdf. On click of the link you can show this modal markup.
You can do this using with jQuery UI dialog, you can download JQuery ui from here Download JQueryUI
Include these scripts first inside <head> tag
<link href="css/smoothness/jquery-ui-1.9.0.custom.css" rel="stylesheet">
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.8.2.js"></script>
<script src="js/jquery-ui-1.9.0.custom.js"></script>
JQuery code
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#trigger').click(function(){
$("#dialog").dialog();
});
});
</script>
HTML code within <body> tag. Use an iframe to load the pdf file inside
<a href="#" id="trigger">this link</a>
<div id="dialog" style="display:none">
<div>
<iframe src="yourpdffile.pdf"></iframe>
</div>
</div>
You can have a look at this library: https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js it renders PDF document in a Web/HTML page
Also you can use Flash to embed the document into any HTML page like that:
<object data="your_file.pdf#view=Fit" type="application/pdf" width="100%" height="850">
<p>
It appears your Web browser is not configured to display PDF files. No worries, just <a href="your_file.pdf">click here to download the PDF file.</a>
</p>
</object>
