Hi,
thanks for the reply.

Yep, checked all the possible plugins but surely I shouldn’t need a plugin to do this. Being able to display a PDF file should already exist in Bricks and it is a glaring hole in the Media elements section. For PDFs, Bricks could simply reply upon the in-built browser support, no need for any other 3rd party viewer. It is also possible to control the tools available to the reader, for example not being able to download the file, copy it etc. The vast majority of these plugins also use iframe which I’m not keen to use. A plugin also can’t be dynamically passed the pdf file to display from a CPT.

The plugin you suggest is OK but provides no control over the tools available to the reader, you have to pay for the secure version which is $30/yr. For now I’ve gone with Wonder PDF Embed as it doesn’t use an iframe and provides the secure options for free.
