embed PDF in page

[let]

If I want to embed a multi page TIFF file in a webpage I use;

<embed src="../images/engtc.tiff" width="638" height="1076">

Now I want to embed a PDF file in a webpage. Do I similarly use an
<embed> tag for this? What sort of syntax is there, is it similar to
that for multipage TIFF files?

If I want to embed a multi page TIFF file in a webpage I use;

<embed src="../images/engtc.tiff" width="638" height="1076">

Now I want to embed a PDF file in a webpage. Do I similarly use an
<embed> tag for this? What sort of syntax is there, is it similar to

Firstly, TIFF is really not an "Internet-supported" file type.
Secondly, should use OBJECT not EMBED...

<object data="../images/engtc.tiff" type="image/tiff" width="638"
height="1076">
<!-- Alternately will display link if not supported -->
<a href="../images/engtc.tiff">Download engtc.tiff</a>
</object>

I would not embed a PDF but supply a link, but anyway...

<object data="your.pdf" type=type="application/pdf">
<a href="your.pdf">your.pdf (umpteen KB)</a>
</object>
