The Adobe Embed API can be used to display PDF files in modern browsers and can accept a Promise that resolves to an array buffer as input. The important part of the code might look like this...

adobeDCView.previewFile({
    content: { promise: Promise.resolve(buffer) }
    metaData: { fileName: :"myFile.pdf" }
});

It's free.
