详情介绍:
PDF Viewer Nova helps WordPress site owners embed polished, full-featured PDF reading experiences directly inside pages and posts.
Use the PDF Viewer Nova block in the WordPress Block Editor or the PDF Viewer Nova widget in Elementor to place PDFs from the Media Library or from public external URLs.
The viewer is powered by PDF.js and highlights a helpful bookmark and outline navigation panel for long PDFs, along with responsive layout controls, floating toolbars, page navigation, zoom controls, fullscreen modes, thumbnails, search, text selection, and configurable viewer sizing.
PDF Viewer Nova is built for easy document embedding and smooth PDF reading.
PDF Viewer Nova Pro is distributed separately by WP Essentia outside the WordPress.org plugin package for teams that need additional publishing and visitor-experience controls.
Key Features
- Bookmark and outline navigation panel for long PDFs.
- Auto-hiding top and bottom controls for clean PDF view when the reader is not interacting.

常见问题:
Can I use PDFs from the Media Library and external URLs?
Yes. You can embed PDFs from the WordPress Media Library or from public external URLs.
Is the viewer responsive, and can I customize its appearance?
Yes. PDF Viewer Nova is built for responsive page layouts and includes viewer settings for sizing, layout, and interface behavior in both Gutenberg and Elementor.
What additional options are available outside the WordPress.org package?
The separately distributed PDF Viewer Nova Pro version adds advanced visitor display options, separate download-button behavior, preview display modes, custom visitor messages, image preview modes, server-generated PDF-page preview images, and download-related message or redirect workflows.
