Forcing visitors to download a file just to read it loses attention fast. **Document Embedder** lets you embed PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and other document formats directly into WordPress posts and pages – trusted by 10,000+ WordPress sites. It supports local file uploads as well as files hosted on platforms like Google Drive and Dropbox, and displays them in a responsive viewer you can configure to match your layout. Choose the viewer that fits your content: the default Google viewer, a high-performance local PDF.js viewer, an interactive 3D/2D FlipBook, or a slideshow-style slider. The Document Library module organizes multiple documents into a structured, searchable library with filters, sorting, and full control over view and download buttons. It’s ideal for sharing reports, presentations, worksheets, guides, and other materials– and with the Pro Email Gate, any document can become a lead magnet. ### Free Features * **Multiple Viewer Engines:** Default (Google Viewer), Custom PDF (local high- performance PDF.js), Interactive 3D/2D FlipBook, or Slideshow-style Slider – completely free. * **Embed Multiple File Types:** PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, images, code, and more. * **Responsive Viewer:** Adjust width and height to fit any layout, with independent controls for Desktop, Tablet, and Mobile. * **Filename Display:** Show the document title at the top for clarity. * **Download Button:** Let users download files with a customizable button label( e.g. «Get Copy», «Save PDF»). * **Download Placement & Behavior:** Position the button in the Toolbar or Below the Embed; choose Force Save Dialog or Open in New Tab. * **Custom Download Filename:** Define the exact filename users see when they download. * **Gutenberg Block Support:** Insert, upload, and configure documents with a real- time live preview in the Block Editor. * **Simple Shortcode Embedding:** Use the `[embed_doc]` shortcode in the Classic Editor or any page builder. * **Dedicated Post Type:** Manage all your documents individually using the `ppt_viewer` custom post type. **Document Library Module** * **Display Multiple Documents:** Create a structured library of documents. * **All File Types:** Works with PDFs, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, images, and more. * **Flexible Upload Options:** Add documents from your device, WordPress Media Library, or via URL. * **Quick Edit & Delete:** Rename or remove documents without hassle. * **Shortcode and Block Support:** Add libraries anywhere using shortcode or Gutenberg block. * **Customizable Layouts:** Style the library to match your design. * **Search, Filter & Sorting:** Sort by file size, name, or recent upload, with hide/show controls. * **Responsive Design:** Optimized for desktops, tablets, and mobile devices. * **Visibility Settings:** Hide or show file icon, view button, download button, file size, and date. ### Pro Version Upgrade to [**Document Embedder Pro**](https://bplugins.com/products/document-embedder/#pricing) for more flexibility, better user control, and advanced integrations. * **Advanced Viewer Customizations:** Lock/unlock full-screen, initial page number, default zoom, horizontal scrollbars, latest-version loading, and default sidebar/ thumbnail visibility. * **Custom Toolbar Themes & Colors:** Dark, Light, or fully Custom toolbar styling. * **Disable Popout Option:** Prevent users from opening documents in a new window. * **Lightbox Display:** Open documents in a modal window for smoother UX. * **Loading Indicator:** Show a spinner until the document fully loads. * **Google Drive API Integration:** Embed and manage docs directly from your Google Drive. * **Dropbox Integration:** Access and embed files from Dropbox easily. * **Content Security & Copy Protection:** Disable text selection/copying, right- click, or printing on embedded files. * **Download Access Control:** Limit downloads to logged-in users only, or restrict by user role. * **Email Gate for Downloads:** Require Name and Email before download – every submission is logged to a searchable Leads Dashboard with CSV export. * **Download Tracking & IP Limits:** Record total download counts and set per-IP download limits. * **Extended Library Uploads:** Upload more than 5 documents to a library (free version is limited to 5). * **Premium Support & Faster Rendering:** Priority help plus an optimized rendering engine. ### How to Use **Quick setup in a few steps:** 1.
