You can now use Smallpdf’s free Embed PDF tool to easily add a PDF icon that can link any file to your Squarespace website.

When a user wants to open a PDF from a website and is asked to download a third-party app to view it, chances are they won’t do so. For good reason. It’s hard to know what and whom to trust these days. So, instead of losing your visitor’s interest, why not let them just open your file securely in their browser? With our Embed PDF tool, your viewers can do exactly that. They will be able to edit, share, and download a copy of your file, all from the comfort of their internet browser.
