Hi,
to show your pdf file in partial view :

1) You can use embed html tag without need any thrid part script :

<embed src="https://www.adobe.com/enterprise/accessibility/pdfs/acro6_pg_ue.pdf" width="500" height="375" type='application/pdf'>

2) Or you can use PDF.js, you will find its documentation by clicking on the following link : Link to PDF.js

Solution 2

C#

"<iframe src= '"+fileName+"' width='800px' height='600px' >" + "</iframe>";

This is also done.
