Description[I have also asked the exact same question on StackOverflow, so please don't get mad.]I am making a website with Quarto (to be hosted on GitHub Pages) that documents my already finished LaTeX projects. A project is a directory which contains the following:
I wish to include the pdf's of these projects to my website as pages (like each I searched the Quarto Guide but it unfortunately does not provide any information on how to have already-created pdf's on the website. |

I don't understand, i.e., a PDF is not and will never be an HTML page. The solution from above is how to embed/include the PDF into an HTML page. If you want it to be open in the browser (as long as it has the plugins to open PDF), then setup a link to the file and add that file into your project yaml. project:
resources:
- path/to/file.pdf |

The iframe is a neat solution. Good to point out that whether the pdf gets actually visualized within the browser, or not, depends on the settings chosen by its user. For example I disabled Firefox's built-in viewer so I only see a download button. For this same reason the link "(e.g. this)" that @dense-set encloses, also appears to me like a dialogue to save the file – I don't see any pdf in the browser. |

Ah, I now understand what you mean. I have never worked with HTML or webdev before, and naïvely assumed that those "(e.g. this)" pdf's also were webpages. @pglpm, your comment has made it clear now. So I will mark @mcanouil's ifframe solution as the answer. Just one last thing: I have added my |

You can also do this by manually (e.g. as part of a Makefile) copy the PDFs the the built location. E.g. I'm creating a book output that consists of <html>
<body>
<iframe src="slides-lec2.pdf#zoom=80&&navpanes=0&statusbar=0&messages=0&pagemode=none" width="100%" height="475px" style="position: relative;z-index: 9999999;">
</iframe>
</body>Then I manually need to copy the pdf I also noticed that someone made an extension https://github.com/jmgirard/embedpdf/blob/main/README.md (I haven't tried it) |

For including PDF (or other files) automatically, something like this can be included in the project's project:
type: book
resources:
- slides-lec[1-8].pdfIt is only listed under the manuscript section in the docs, but works with other outputs. |

There is no need to make it that complicated, use markdown and Quarto should discover the resource properly. If Quarto does not discover the resource, then you can use |

Thanks for the reply! I didn't think that would work with the PDF options like zoom level, but it seems like I can just append them like this, which is convenient:
Unfortunately this does not happen. I have to declare the resources specifically in the YAML file as per my post above. |
