Q: Iframes

Can iframes be used to show ads? I’m thinking of putting an offer in some pdfs, so it would be cool to change the offer centrally rather than hopping into all the pdfs.

A: You could probably use a text/code ad with iframe HTML in it. Point the src of the iframe to the PDF. Typically this type of ad is used or ad networks, but I think it should also accomplish what you're looking for.

I meant add the iframe to the pdfs- to show an ad offer in the pdf file itself

Ohhh ok. I'm not sure that you can embed iframes into PDFs (quick search says no). If you can, then you could probably create a WordPress page, embed the ad or group into that page, then create an iframe that points to that WordPress page.

You would need to do some custom work to hide the header/footer/other parts of the WordPress page that you don't want to show up in the iframe.
