    Hi there,

    Chrome, Firefox and Microsoft Edge all show a toolbar at the top, but Safari shows a floating toolbar with just the options to zoom, download and click to open the pdf. We wanted a top toolbar in all browsers that shows tools for scrolling through pages, zooming in and out, printing and downloading. Can your plugin do that?

    2. Also, I get the same results using the iframe or embed tags. Is there a difference between your plugin and using the embed tag other?

    Thanks

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    I’m not sure I understand what you mean about a toolbar. This plugin does not add a toolbar.

    The plugin is designed to load the iframe on mobile, as these devices have issues with the object tag. It should automatically use the object.

    Thanks Andy for the reply. That explains why it doesn’t work any differently from when I use the embed tag. Actually the toolbar automatically is added by Chrome and other browsers to the pdf when the embed tag is used. There are pdf embed plugins that use pdf.js to add a toolbar I am speaking about to the top in place of the automatic ones; however, they don’t work in Microsoft Edge (just get a warning about the site doing something illegal. That’s why I tried your plugin. Thanks for your time

    I’m certain there’s a lot of browser specific variability. FWIW, the page in question shows up fine on my iPhone.
