Restrict access to pdf file

  • Hi, is there a way to restrict access to the phyisical pdf file? We tried to use your plugin uploading pdf files on a restricted folder on our server but the shortcode does not convert the files. If we remove the folder restriction, it works. Our site sells an online magazine through a subscription system and the pdf files must not be reached directly. The restriction happens with a deny all directive on a .htaccess file into the destination folder.

    Thankyou.

    Yes you can- by using the desktop publisher available here: https://flowpaper.com/app/

    The desktop publisher does not expose the PDF file once the publication has been converted

    Hi, thank you for the reply. We have tried to use the trial version of the desktop publisher, but we didn’t understand, even when we select our server as the destination, where the files would be physically uploaded.

    You can choose if you want to host the files yourself or if you want to upload the files to our cloud hosting. If you host them yourself then all you really need is a folder on a web hosting service
