FAQ

This seems too good to be true, is it free?

Yes! The embed editor is and will remain free, it comes with a branding ("Powered by SimplePDF") that can be replaced (or removed) with your own logo under the Premium Plan

What happens to the document my users load and the data they fill in?

For the default editor (companyIdentifier is not specified): It stays in their browser! The document(s) that they load and the data they fill in never leaves their computer: SimplePDF privacy policy.

For company editors (companyIdentifier is specified): The users are notified that the document and the data they submit is sent to the server. This is part of the paid offering of SimplePDF: allowing to automate form submissions.

How come the library is so small?

The library is a simple wrapper around an Iframe that loads SimplePDF on-demand (whenever the user clicks the wrapped link), as such the footprint for this "opening an Iframe" mechanism is very tiny, the SimplePDF editor is of course bigger, but your users won't download anything until they have clicked the link. Think "lazy-loading".
