Check if PDF has been loaded

Question

I am trying to load a PDF within an iframe and have to execute few events only when PDF has been loaded. (Note: By PDF getting loaded, I mean PDF contents are visible on screen not the initializing/loading progress bar of Adobe reader). I am using the following code for now:

<iframe id="iframe" src="http://somedomain.com/somfilePatf/someFile.pdf">

I have tried onload event for iframe but it triggers as soon as page renders the iframe (not when iframe content is completely loaded). Please help me on the same.

Use the below code/function to achieve the required options

<iframe id="iframe" src="http://somedomain.com/somfilePatf/someFile.pdf">  

<script type="text/javascript">
    document.getElementById('iframe').onload = function() {
        functionAfterPDFLoad();
    }
</script>

This works as soon as the iframe is loaded (and not the PDF) and this doesnt work in IE. – Abhishek Mar 14 '18 at 17:23
