Embedding a Google document requires an extra step when compared to embedding a Google Form or presentation. It’s a little “quirky.” You need to not only copy the embed code from Google, you also need to add a little “extra” code for the document to display as a full page.

Shown immediately below is the iframe code copied from Google for embedding a document.

iframe src=”https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1L9VAvG5Y1YK86QoPM-R5yZ7hU7i-TdUQADLB1ygz0Io&amp;embedded=true”></iframe></p><p>

With the above code the Google Document displays in the exact size shown below:

The following needs to be added to make the document display in a larger size:

frameborder=”0” height=”800” width=100%

If the above do not work, manually type them in rather than copying and pasting from this document.

The embed code would now appear as

iframe src=”https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1L9VAvG5Y1YK86QoPM-R5yZ7hU7i-TdUQADLB1ygz0Io&amp;embedded=true” frameborder=”0″ height=”800″ width=100%></iframe></p><p>

frame border =”0″ removes black border that appears around embedded Google Doc and its own iframe horizontal scroll bar.

width = 100% means to use whatever given width the display device has available for the page.

If you want to see how the document looks with the black border: don’t add the frameborder command or set it to 1. You can also experiment with including frameborders with different colors.
