Can I hide the Adobe floating toolbar when showing a PDF in browser?

Question

I am generating a PDF document and displaying it in a Web browser (current version of IE is most important target). I want to suppress the floating toolbar (see below) that appears and disappears depending on mouse movement.

Is there a way to suppress this? I can control the PDF document (it's built using itextpdf), as well as the Url.

I think that is the preference of the user.

What you can do is to add #toolbar=0 to the end of the URL.

For example,

http://DOMAIN/FILE_NAME.pdf#toolbar=0

Something you might want to do is:

<embed src="MyFile.pdf#toolbar=0&scrollbar=0&navpanes=1" width="530" height="300" />
