Questions the author answers

How to install DearFlip on my WordPress site?

Please check the installation tab for details.

How many pages can 3D Flipbook support and how big can a PDF file be?

DearFlip – 3D Flipbook uses PDF.js to render the PDF pages. At any given time it requires only six pages of data at max. So the number of pages in a PDF file doesn’t really affect the 3D Flipbook. Also, it only loads six Pages of data to start the flipbook and this makes it a resource-friendly and traffic-friendly 3D flipbook. Other 3D flipbooks might crash with huge files, DearFlip will last longer.

How to create a PDF flipbook in a WordPress Page?
  • Upload a PDF file to your WordPress site.
  • Inside the Edit page/post, add the following shortcode

[dflip source=”Path\To\PdfFile.pdf”]
