I would like to allow my visitors to view multi-page PDF price lists and other documents using Pageflip. Will Pageflip work with pdfs?

Hello Robert,
PageFlip uses only images (.jpg, .png, .gif, .bmp) and cannot be used with PDF files.
Many thanks!

OK, thanks Claudio
To be honest I feel cheated. I though that buying PageFlip will allow me to put text and pictures as shown in the example on your website. Meanwhile it's just a normal gallery and nothing else.
Hello Tom,
In the description of the optional object it is written it works only with images. In the example it has been used an image containing text.
Many thanks!

Although I, too, was disappointed, I have converted the documents that I use from PDFs back to Jpegs (these are complete pages of text and images in the form of a user's manual) and they work fine with Page Flip as a result. Claudio is correct that it referred to images but with the correct software you can convert things back to jpeg and then it works OK.

Yep. Well, I looked at the image and it didn't read the description. Converting takes time and that's one of the things I don't have. If I'd read the description I definitely wouldn't have bought it. It's just a gallery. Well, even worse than the standard gallery because you can't even link the images... My mistake though.
