Hey
I'm Richard, a web developer at a UK agency. Living Page started as an itch I couldn't scratch at work: clients kept handing us PDFs brochures, menus, proposals and every way of putting them online was ugly, expensive, or a download link people ignored on their phones.
Hey Richard,
interesting nice tool you have built. I have given it a little ride to see if it was good enough to deserve a short review on my T5 website. I noticed 2 things right away:
Margins top and bottom for my converted PDF were unacceptable - almost non-existent
Links in the original PDF were not preserved
Are you planning to correct these?
@robingoodΒ Thanks for flagging both of these β and taking a look over Living Page!
Links: good news β since your test we shipped hyperlink support, so links embedded in your original PDF now carry across as clickable areas in the flipbook automatically (if the uploaded PDF is text-layer based). We also have a beta linking feature live in the dash for drawing link areas and video players within the pages.
Margins: We are aware of clipping issues when PDFs whose pages aren't all the same size (a common one is a full-bleed cover followed by regular content pages), where the reader was trimming the top and bottom of the off-size pages. The PDF itself is untouched; it's how we fit pages into the reader. A fix is in progress. We also shipped some aspect ratio related bug fixes recently, which will also help this.
Was this a temp anonymous upload without an account? It's likely expired by now I'm assuming. You're welcome to re-upload and drop me the docs link, or email hello@livingpage.app with the details and I'll take a closer look.
Thanks again!
