- Click on Embed > Publish
- Click Ok on the pop-up:
- The Embed link will appear after this and the Publish button will be changed to Published:

- Further modifications of the iframe like width, height, etc. can be made. However, the src parameter should stay the same i.e., the link to the Office document as copied from the Embed tab.
