You could use svg for example :
see https://codepen.io/evantill/pen/JjaqYdj
Just change the diagram url and it will fit.

A great article on positioning elements in svg :

Do not forget to tell plantuml to use a transparent background :

@startuml
skinparam backgroundcolor transparent
Bob -> Alice : hello
