Embedding PDF

  • kaylaeggenbergportfolio · Member ·

    Is there a way to embed a PDF to my wordpress.com portfolio so that my work appears and not just a link to the PDF? Or would I have do download a new plugin to do that? (Which I can’t since I am just a .com-er). Any help is appreciated!

    Hi, Alternatively, I would suggest instead of embedding a PDF, why note upload the PDF to Google Drive and the embed the file as a Google Document using the WordPress shortcode feature? You can see this in action here:

    (see the beer list) at https://thehopgarden.net/paoli-wi-taproom/

    The directions for how to do this are at https://en.support.wordpress.com/google-docs/

    Hope this helps!

    Thanks for the suggestion, that definitely would work too!

    However, I found that if you save the pdf as a .png you can upload it as an image and it is more aesthetically appealing on the page!
