Document Embedder

Stop forcing visitors to download files. Document Embedder lets you add PDFs, Word, PowerPoint, and other documents directly to your WordPress site. Use our simple Gutenberg block or shortcode to deliver a fast, responsive, and professional viewing experience on any device.

Sharing documents on your website should be simple. But making users download files or open new tabs creates a poor experience. Users become distracted, depart from your site, and may never come back. Document Embedder fixes this problem by keeping them engaged with seamless, on-page document viewing.

Add any documents in seconds.
Forget complicated setups. Just upload your file, copy the shortcode, and paste it anywhere. Or, use the intuitive Gutenberg block to add documents directly in the editor. Go from file to published page in under a minute.

Display Documents Beautifully on Any Screen
Your documents will look great on any device. Our responsive viewer automatically adjusts to fit any screen size, from phones to desktops. Readers get a crystal-clear view without awkward pinching or zooming.

Keep Your Visitors Focused and On-Site
Don’t send users to another app or window. Document Embedder displays files directly on your page. For a truly focused experience, upgrade to Pro and open documents in a clean lightbox popup.

Control How Users Interact with Your Files
You decide what users can do. Add a download button for easy access, or disable the pop-out option in the Pro version to keep them from leaving your site. You have full control over the user experience.
