Privacy Policy

Pdf Embed uses Appsero SDK to collect some telemetry data upon user’s confirmation. This helps us to troubleshoot problems faster & make product improvements.

Appsero SDK does not gather any data by default. The SDK only starts gathering basic telemetry data when a user allows it via the admin notice. We collect the data to ensure a great user experience for all our users.

Integrating Appsero SDK DOES NOT IMMEDIATELY start gathering data, without confirmation from users in any case.

Unfortunately the plugin doesn’t seem to function. Getting an error message within Gutenberg

Very nice and practical.

Very nice and practical plugin, thank you.

Love it! Can zoom nicely on mobile <<< a must have imo.

bizwizkid May 16, 2023

Excellent plugin! Allows full mobile pinch-zooming where others don’t. I tried many other more widely downloaded but, yours works best! Thank you!

Genuine Adobe display features are available

Akihiko Fuji March 1, 2022

This plugin allows you to display PDF files beautifully in Wordpress. In particular, the beauty of the PDF file can be maintained when zooming in and out, especially in the Safari browser. In addition, the inline display, the download restriction function and the print restriction function are very good features that cannot be reproduced by other plug-ins. To use it, you need Adobe API key, but you can get it for free by following the instructions.
