Can I share a link without the tools bar and comment box loading?

When opening a link to a shared document (PDF file), the file opens in the browser with the tools bar loaded and the comment box loaded.  I would like neither of these to open when the page loads.  Is there an option to disable these items from opening/loading on initial opening of a document?

    Hi smwical, thanks for messaging the Community!

     

    Do you want to preview the file as is, or do you want to still see some of the Dropbox interface?

     

    We do have this option in order to render the file in the browser.

     

    This will help me to assist further!
