How to view PDF document full screen

I have to post many PDF documents on our website.
With Evolution 12, then 13 and now 14 I have been using the I-Frame feature. However it seems that it is not possible to click on a document and view it full screen. With I-Frame, full screen means confined to its own box.
Is there a way to go around this limitation and for example open the doc in another window ? Some people (website viewers) have been complaining that it is too small for them in the box.
Thanks for your answer

Hello Jean-Pierre,
Yes, it's very simple.
Just create a LINK to the PDF and specify that you want to open it in a New Window.
NOTE: Avoid using iFrames because they are not really supported on responsive websites.
For an example, see http://www.the-carillon.com/2017.html
The Link window > Action section |
File or URL | Internet file (*)
>> ShowBox ... or >> PopUp (2000x1500)
...!... The .PDF format file is not suitable for WEB ...!...
To get the maximum compatibility on the web on the various browsers, you need to import it through GoogleDocsViewer, either with direct link, in IFRAME, Popup, and ShowBox.
>> LINK PDF GoogleDocsViewer (*) = URL to be typed
>> LINK PopUp PDF GoogleDocsViewer
