PDF Embedder

Beskrivning

Upload PDF files and embed them directly into your site’s posts and pages. It works as simple as adding images! Your PDF files will be automatically sized to their natural size and shape. You can also specify a width and the correct height will be calculated automatically. Our PDF Embedder plugin is fully responsive, so the embedded PDF will also look perfect, on any device. Additionally, the pdf embedder will automatically resize whenever the browser dimensions change.

The plugin has a unique method for embedding PDF files, using Javascript only, and not iframes or third-party services. This offers immense flexibility over the appearance of your document.

The PDF viewer has Next and Previous buttons to navigate the document, and zoom buttons if some areas of a PDF file are too small for your screen.

Your PDF files are embedded within your existing WordPress pages so we have full control over appearance, and all Javascript and other files are served by your own server (not by Google or any other third-party who may not be able to guarantee their own reliability). This means your PDF files will load fast, without any speed penalty.

Other PDF embedder plugins insert the PDF into an ’iframe’ which means they do not get the flexibility over sizing. Ours does not and that is an incredible benefit to the overall viewing experience across all devices.

In the free plugin, there is no button for users to download the PDF, but download options are available in the Premium versions along with other awesome features.

Another Premium feature are Hyperlinks in your PDF being clickable. Links in the free plugin cannot be clicked.

Användning

  1. När det är installerat och aktiverat klickar du på ”Lägg till media” från valfri sida eller inlägg, precis som att lägga till en bild, men dra och släpp en PDF-fil istället.

  2. När du infogar i ditt inlägg kommer det visas i redigeraren som en ”kortkod” enligt följande:

  3. [pdf-embedder url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Plan-Summary.pdf"]

  4. You can change the default appearance – e.g. width, and toolbar position/appearance through Settings -> PDF Embedder and also shortcode or block attributes.

To override your site-wide defaults on an individual embed, see the Plugin Instructions for information about sizing options plus other ways to customize the shortcodes.

Mobilvänlig inbäddning med PDF Embedder Premium

The free version will work on most mobile browsers, but cannot position the document entirely within the screen.

Our PDF Embedder Premium plugin solves this problem with an intelligent ’full screen’ mode.

When the document is smaller than a certain width, the document displays only as a ’thumbnail’ with a large ’View in Full Screen’ button for the user to click when they want to study your document.

This opens up the document so it has the full focus of the mobile browser, and the user can move about the document without hitting other parts of the web page by mistake. Viewers can then Click Exit to return to the regular page.

The user can also swipe continuously between all pages of the PDF which is more natural than clicking the navigation buttons to navigate.

See our site wp-pdf.com for more details and purchase options.

Protect your PDFs with our secure premium pdf embedder version

Our PDF Embedder Premium Secure plugin provides the same simple but elegant viewer as the premium version, with the added protection that it is difficult for users to download or print the original PDF document.

Det betyder att din PDF troligtvis inte kommer att delas utanför din webbplats där du inte har kontroll över vem som visar, skriver ut eller delar den.

Optionally, add a watermark containing the user’s name or email address to discourage sharing of screenshots.

See our site wp-pdf.com for more details and purchase options.

PDF Thumbnails

Our PDF Thumbnails plugin automatically generates fixed image versions of all PDF files in your Media Library, to use on your site as you wish.

You can use them as featured images in posts containing an embedded version of the PDF, or as a visual clickable link to download the PDF directly.
It also displays the thumbnail as the ”icon” for the PDF in the Media Library, making it easy for authors to locate the PDFs they need to insert in a post.

See our site wp-pdf.com/thumbnails/ for more details and purchase options.

With thanks to the Mozilla team for developing the underlying pdf.js technology used by this pdf embedder plugin.

Vanliga frågor

Hur kan jag få support för denna produkt?

We have instructions and a Knowledge Base on our website explaining common setup queries and issues.

We may almost daily review and respond to support queries posted on the ’Support’ forum here on the wordpress.org plugin page.

Hur kan jag ändra storlek eller anpassa verktygsfältet?

See Settings -> PDF Embedder in your WordPress admin to change site-wide defaults. You can also override individual embeds by modifying the shortcode.

Resizing works as follows:

  • If width='max' the width will take as much space as possible within its parent container (e.g. column within your page).
  • If width is a number (e.g. width="500") then it will display at that number of pixels wide.

In all cases, if the parent container is narrower than the width calculated above, then the document width will be reduced to the size of the container.

The height will be calculated so that the document fits naturally, given the width already calculated.

The Next/Prev toolbar can appear at the top or bottom of the document (or both), and it can either appear only when the user hovers over the document or it can be fixed at all times.

See the Plugin Instructions for more details about sizing and toolbar options.

Kan jag förbättra visningsupplevelsen för mobilanvändare?

Yes, our PDF Embedder Premium plugin has an intelligent ’full screen’ mode.
When the document is smaller than a certain width, the document displays only as a ’thumbnail’ with a large ’View in Full Screen’ button for the user to click when they want to study your document.
This opens up the document so it has the full focus of the mobile browser, and the user can move about the document without hitting other parts of the web page by mistake.
Click Exit to return to the regular web page.

See our website wp-pdf.com for more details and purchase options.

Kan jag skydda mina PDF:er så att de är svåra för tittarna att ladda ner direkt?

Not with the free or (regular) pdf embedder premium versions – it is relatively easy to find the link to download the file directly.

A secure premium version is available that encrypts the PDF during transmission, so it is difficult for a casual user to save or print the file for use outside your site.

See our website wp-pdf.com for more details and purchase options.

Kan jag lägga till en nedladdningsknapp i verktygsfältet?

This is possible only in the PDF Embedder Premium version. As a workaround in the free version, you could add a direct link to the PDF beneath the embedded version.

To do this, copy the URL from the pdf-embedder shortcode and insert it into a link using HTML such as this:
<a href=”(url of PDF)”>Download Here</a>

Stöds hyperlänkar?

Premium-versionen tillåter funktionella hyperlänkar – både interna länkar i dokumentet och länkar till externa webbplatser.

The plugin solves a major problem. It allows you to put a PDF in a WP page so that it appears directly.
