    Hello DNN-community,

    1) Which PDF-Viewers for "DNN Platform" would you advice? I search for a simple lighweight PDF-Viewer that can display a PDF in DNN in a new browser tab and has a zoom function. Both cost-free and non cost-free modules are of interest.

    2) I also search for a more complicated module - a Flippingbook (german Blätterkatalog). It should be able to display a ready Flippingbook (a collection of HTML- and Javascript-files). Or it should create a Flippingbook suitable for DNN. 
    The flippingbook should be integrated not as an iFrame, but as a DNN module.

    Have you made good experiences with some modules and could advice them?

    Best regards, Adele

      Adele,

      I was looking for something like this as well a while ago - and did not find any specific solution as a DNN module.

      But it should be possible (and not too complicated) to integrate a JS library like GitHub - loicminghetti/touchpdf: PDF viewer supporting touch gestures for jQuery using 2sxc or OpenContent.

      Happy DNNing!
      Michael

        How about something free like:

        This will use the browser pdf viewer which does vary between browsers.

         <object  type="application/pdf" data="{path to pdf file}" width="100%" height="1000px">
                             <p>Your browser cannot view pdf documents</p>
                             <a href="{path to your pdf file}" download>Download Catalog</a>
                      </object>
