It is great that you found a workaround.&nbsp;</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>A quick question, have you tried to access your PDF's from any other mobile devices too? Your workaround is super helpful, but I was not aware that PDF's are not showing up on mobile devices. Just wanting to double check there is nothing we need to look into further.</P> Fri, 18 Apr 2025 17:05:39 GMT Sammie_C 2025-04-18T17:05:39Z https://community.squareup.com/t5/Online-Store/PDF-not-showing-on-mobile-devices-here-s-an-alternative/m-p/790421#M1746 <P class=""><STRONG>Tried to embed a PDF menu on a Square Online site (paid plan) and learned something new...</STRONG></P> <P class="">PDFs don’t show up on mobile.</P> <P class="">&nbsp;</P> <P class="">Here’s what I recommend instead:</P> <P class="">&nbsp;</P> <P class=""><STRONG>Option 1:</STRONG> Convert the PDF to an image (Canva or even Preview on Mac works great).
