Reviews

A really effective substitute for the other PDF embedder which seems to be over complicated. This one does all I need and allows printing and downloading without having to pay for the pro version. Thanks Andy, just what I needed.

A light and very easy to use plugin, no shortcode, no fuss. Thanks ! the fullscreen feature is a bit surprising though, does not works as expected for me (Chrome), but never mind since it is easy to download it, or to zoom in. Plugin léger, pas de shortcode, on charge les PDF comme on charge les photos, directo depuis la biblio du site. Bouton pour imprimer + télécharger inclus, et le lien du doc apparait automatiquement sous la fenêtre. j'aime !

No settings, just add the link of the PDF on a page or use a block. Had issue with the viewer width, but there's a simple solution for that as well, check this thread. Thanks!

The pdf is cut in half. Have to scroll to read a full page. Not very many settings. Very limited in how it can be used. I can't use it. Still looking for a PDF viewer that just works. Apparently this is a very difficult thing to do cause there are no good ones out there 🙁

This is a great PDF viewer/ embedder plugin, just works, and developer quickly fixed an issue I identified (warwickbromleyfiles.co.uk ). Only problem is that it doesn't work too well on mobiles (seems to add a load of whitespace and revert to Google embed). So I now recommend and prefer warwickbromleyfiles.co.uk
