Embed PDF in HTML page

What is the best way, to embed a pdf in a html page and to display it with Adobe Reader? I tried but my other pdf viewer (PDF XChange Viewer) displays the pdf - not the Adobe Reader! In Firefox settings the option "Use Acrobat in Firefox" is enabled!
 
Can I force it to display a 3D-PDF with Adobe Reader (which only works there) on other computers or does that depend on users decision?

My Product Information:
Reader 10.0.2, Windows

Unfortunately this did not helped me. The PDF is displayed with my alternative PDF viewer instead of Adobe Reader.

No and no.
This is related to the softwares installed on the end user computer, if it don't have Adobe Reader installed you (and he) cannot force anything.
