[FIXED] How can I force an embeded PDF to display at "Page Width" zoom level?

Issue

I'm using embed to embed a pdf into my web page. I could also use object or iframe. I want the pdf to open full width of the page, which i have working. But I want the zoom level to be "Page Width". Ive seen several solutions for height, like #view=FitH and some for specific percentages, but not "Page Width"


Solution

Most PDF settings are browser specific and subject to user control so here a Chrome based Edge (on the left) and a Firefox based clone (on the right) the biggest problem noticed in these four types of loading is the lack of object support (totally missing in bottom right). Note:- I have security set so only the high speed secured Firefox based plugin viewer will show me PDFs inline without risk of running a script.

However in direct answer to the question not all browsers support the acrobat#tags but most will attempt #zoom=50% (and #page= except perhaps Safari?) whereas fit has frequently been an odd behaviour difference between all of the camps. I show the chrome result below.

the correct tag could be #FitW and that's what I used when chrome unsecured viewing is turned on enter image description here
