Description
The PDFEmbed extension allows PDF files (uploaded to your wiki) to be embedded into a wiki page using <pdf></pdf> tags. The PDF file extension is automatically added and necessarily default permissions are configured. Future functionality will allow this extension to act as a media handler for PDF files.
Installation
Download
Download and place the file(s) in a directory called PDFEmbed in your extensions/ folder.
Activation
Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php:
wfLoadExtension( 'PDFEmbed' );
Configuration
If the default configuration needs to be altered add these settings to the "LocalSettings.php" file below the require:
// Default width for the PDF object container. $wgPdfEmbed['width'] = 800; // Default height for the PDF object container. $wgPdfEmbed['height'] = 1090;
Usage
The PDF to be embedded must first be uploaded to the wiki through "Special:Upload". The namespace prefixed file name is then used between the tags to embed it in a page.
<pdf>File:Example.pdf</pdf>
With optional width and height.
<pdf width="500" height="300">File:Example.pdf</pdf>
Scroll to page 10 after document is rendered.
<pdf page="10">File:Example.pdf</pdf>
