    Well, it certainly seems like that should be working…

    Does it output anything at all?

    Does the plugin work elsewhere on your site, ie: embedding a PDF in a post?

    Apparently do_shortcode does not work with the [embed] tag.

    This is a limitation of WordPress, rather than the plugin. Fortunately, there is a way around that limitation, using apply_filters as described on the page linked.

    you mean i have to use :

    <?php apply_filters( [embed width="400" height="600"]https://xx.xx/xx/01.pdf[/embed] ); ?>
