you can try below code to open a file(on any url) in a iframe.

Window window = new Window();
window.setWidth("90%");
window.setHeight("90%");
BrowserFrame e = new BrowserFrame("PDF File", new ExternalResource("http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdf_open_parameters.pdf"));
e.setWidth("100%");
e.setHeight("100%");
window.setContent(e);
window.center();
window.setModal(true);
UI.getCurrent().addWindow(window);

You could use the sample contained in Vaadin documentation

https://vaadin.com/book/-/page/advanced.printing.html (see 11.6.3. Printing PDF)

    // A user interface for a (trivial) data model from which
    // the PDF is generated.
    final TextField name = new TextField("Name");
    name.setValue("Slartibartfast");

    // This has to be clicked first to create the stream resource
    final Button ok = new Button("OK");

    // This actually opens the stream resource
    final Button print = new Button("Open PDF");
    print.setEnabled(false);

    ok.addClickListener(new ClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void buttonClick(ClickEvent event) {
            // Create the PDF source and pass the data model to it
            StreamSource source =
                new MyPdfSource((String) name.getValue());

            // Create the stream resource and give it a file name
            String filename = "pdf_printing_example.pdf";
            StreamResource resource =
                    new StreamResource(source, filename);

            // These settings are not usually necessary. MIME type
            // is detected automatically from the file name, but
            // setting it explicitly may be necessary if the file
            // suffix is not ".pdf".
            resource.setMIMEType("application/pdf");
            resource.getStream().setParameter(
                    "Content-Disposition",
                    "attachment; filename="+filename);

            // Extend the print button with an opener
            // for the PDF resource
            BrowserWindowOpener opener =
                    new BrowserWindowOpener(resource);
            opener.extend(print);

            name.setEnabled(false);
            ok.setEnabled(false);
            print.setEnabled(true);
        }
    });


    layout.addComponent(name);
    layout.addComponent(ok);
    layout.addComponent(print);
