PDF Viewer is a WordPress plugin that allows you to embed PDF document on your site without using Flash plugin and only rely on JavaScript in order to work. This will make your website HTML5-compliant. This plugin is powered by Mozilla PDF.js script.
How to embed: Use shortcode like this [pdfviewer width=”600px” height=”849px”]http://full-url/document.pdf[/pdfviewer]
<a href="https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/" rel="nofollow ugc">PDF.js</a> is an HTML5 technology experiment that explores building a faithful and efficient Portable Document Format (PDF) renderer without native code assistance. The goal is to create a general-purpose, web standards-based platform for parsing and rendering PDFs. PDF.js development is community-driven and supported by Mozilla Labs.

<h3>Admin Notice After Updates / Invalid Block</h3>
When you update the plugin, editors may see an admin banner explaining that Gutenberg could show an “Attempt Block Recovery” prompt when editing older posts with PDFs. Clicking it updates the block format; it does not affect what visitors see. You can dismiss the banner, and it won’t reappear until a future release enables it again.

PDF.js Viewer


I was impressed with the level of support provided with the recent issue where the plugin stopped displaying due to Mozilla’s PDFjs, and they started using mjs files.



Thank you for an excellent plugin.
