Embed PDFs in HTML5 format

The standard method of embedding a PDF into a website is more than a viable option but it’s not the best one there is, and certainly not the most aesthetically pleasing. We offer you a better way to embed your PDFs into websites.

HTML5 PDF viewer for your website

Instead of displaying PDF links on your site you should try making a stylish flipbook. It’s quick and easy, and it can be embedded on your web page. You don’t even need any coding skills. It’s just a matter of Copy - Paste.

Our software works perfectly as a web PDF viewer, making your files look even more professional and polished than they normally do. But don’t just trust us, give it a try to see for yourself.

It’s also a better way to integrate the share link in a newsletter than to work with attachments that might not go past firewalls.

Unlike other technologies that get blocked by modern browsers, we ensure cross browser compatibility and a great reading experience on multiple devices.
