Embedding a PDF in Webflow is a great way to enhance your website and provide valuable content to your users. With just a few simple steps, you can easily showcase PDF documents directly on your Webflow site. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of embedding a PDF in Webflow using HTML.
Step 1: Upload your PDF file
Before we begin, make sure you have the PDF file you want to embed ready on your computer. You can upload the PDF file to any cloud storage platform or hosting service of your choice.
Step 2: Get the URL of the PDF file
Once your PDF file is uploaded, copy the URL of the file. This URL will be used to embed the PDF in your Webflow site.
Step 3: Open your Webflow project
If you haven’t already, log in to your Webflow account and open the project where you want to embed the PDF.
Step 4: Add an Embed element
In Webflow, find the page where you want to embed the PDF and add an Embed element by clicking on the ‘+’ icon in the top toolbar. Drag and drop the Embed element onto your desired location on the page.
Step 5: Insert HTML code
Inside the Embed element, paste the following HTML code:
<iframe src="URL_OF_YOUR_PDF_FILE" width="100%" height="600px"></iframe>Note: Replace “URL_OF_YOUR_PDF_FILE” with the actual URL of your PDF file that you copied earlier.
Optional: Customize the PDF viewer
If you want to customize the appearance of the embedded PDF viewer, you can use additional HTML attributes in the iframe tag. For example, you can adjust the width and height of the viewer by modifying the “width” and “height” attributes in pixels or percentages.
Step 6: Preview and publish
Now that you have added the HTML code to embed your PDF, you can preview your Webflow site to see how it looks. Click on the “Preview” button in the top-right corner to open a new tab with your site preview.
Note: Remember to save your changes before previewing or publishing your site.
