embed

We have prepared notes for university students which are on .docx format. And we want it to put on our website for viewing.

We tried one option. Uploading the files on scribd and embedding it on our website for viewing on scribd viewer. Will making documents available on srcibd viewer on our website affect search engine rankings ?

Will search engines treat it as duplicate content as those are already uploaded on scribd and we are embedding it on our website ?

On scribd we have set the uploaded documents as 'private' though.

And if it affects, can you suggest any suitable way to make .docx files to be viewed on our website that doesn't affect search engine rankings ?
