    How can I protect the PDF files from being downloaded? I want customers to view the PDF only, not download or share it. Pro version is not a problem if needed.

    btw: your webpage captcha is not working, I couldn’t leave a message there.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Pdf cannot be secured by our plugin. We only display pdfs. You can hide the download button at best. Hiding download button is also possible in lite version. There is no need for full version if this is your concern.

    On which page did you have captcha issue?

    Thanks. I also need to hide the share icon and use hyperlinks. How hard is it to still download the PDF if the download and share buttons are removed?
    One more question: does pro version have an option to open the flipbook fullscreen by default?

    Thanks again

    The captcha issue was with the contact form at the bottom on the doc pages here: https://wordpress.dearflip.com/docs/

    Hi,

    Share icon hiding and hyperlinks are available in full version.

    Download button is hidden but if anyone is able to view you HTML they can see the pdf URL. Thus hard is subjective here.

    “open the flipbook fullscreen” is not possible due to browser restrictions and not recommended. Yet there is an experimental workaround: https://jquery.dearflip.com/docs/open-flipbook-in-full-screen/
    Note: Won’t open in fullscreen when opened by deeplink. https://jquery.dearflip.com/docs/open-flipbook-in-full-screen/#flipbook-3d-flipbook/1/

    Best Regards,

    DearHive
