Ability to specify the size (height & width) of PDF preview

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      User pointed out that:
      Currently, when user want to view PDF file they have to change the mode to full screen or download it since the preview box height & width are fixed and the displayed PDF preview is not very clear without the full screen mode.

            If you manually enter the embed code for the viewfile macro rather than using the macro interface, you can set the preview width and height for the attached .pdf file.

            First attach the document to a page and then use the view file macro to display the document's content by manually entering the embed code.

            embed code example:

            {viewfile:Program.pdf|width=600|height=800}

            Hello Hanis, it looks like CSP-114503 is not visible to the public.

            Would it be feasible to allow users to set a width variable for the PDF macro? I'm not sure whether that's the same thing as your request or whether this counts as a separate issue.
