Really beautiful way to not disclose requirements for this plugin to work. At least write a tutorial on how to do it, it’s not like it is simple out of the box procedure.

Good Plugin

Fa il suo lavoro senza se e senza ma

Excellent free plugin

I’ve been using the plugin for quite a while on a couple of my websites. Getting accustomed to the principles underlying the plugin and grasping with the interface takes some time but it’s worth the investment! There are plenty of options to fine tune the way the pdfs show on screen, and it works well whatever the device in use.

Simple and great plugin.
