How to use Adobe PDF for Confluence

After installing the Adobe PDF for Confluence app, it will become available as three separate Confluence Macros. If you want to embed Adobe PDF files into a Confluence page, they need to be externally available as the macro only accepts public URL’s to PDF files. When embedding the PDF file, you can choose between the Adobe PDF Viewer, Adobe PDF Slideshow and Adobe PDF Inline embed macro.

Embed using the macro editor

1. When editing a page, click on the plus button at the top right of your screen and click on Other macro’s or View more

2. Search for Adobe PDF

3. Based on your preference, select the Adobe PDF Viewer, Adobe PDF Slideshow or Adobe PDF Inline Embed macro

4. The macro editor right side panel will open, which will allow you to enter the URL of your PDF file

5. Depending on the chosen macro, you can enable/disable additional viewer options

6. Select the desired dimensions & click insert
   Keep in mind that one of both dimensions (width & height) needs to be a css unit. Also note that height can only be an absolute unit (px, cm, etc) and not relative (%, em, etc)

7. Publish your Confluence page & your Adobe PDF file will become visible!
   Keep in mind that scene’s are read-only
