Shortcodes are available if you want to place them on a specific page.Suggestion: a reminder of the shortcodes in the admin panel. The ability to target a specific tag within the page. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e48d7d96a7189d4c3da7c13600d09303a826b825fec8e6ab2c83b4daa2ac268d? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great Plugin for PDF’s of posts or pages!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-for-pdfs-of-posts-or-pages/)󠁿 [kingfish65](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kingfish65/) 28 Masg 2022 This is a great plugin to add a download as a PDF for your WordPress posts and pages. Simple to install and setup. Plugin creator is responsive to support questions. One suggestion I have is to if there is a link in a post it retains the link in the PDF. Or make it an option.
