Before you take the trouble I did an experiment. On all my attempts I experienced a single issue. When published the PDF viewer works fine on my computer but on my iPad the menu/control bar is missing. So incase I have corrupted your projects in the transfer to my website I added my publishing credentials to your clean file that you sent me and that has EXACTLY the same issue, the PDF views perfectly on my computer, menu/control bar and all, but on my iPad the menu/control bar at the top of the pdf is missing. This URL is exactly the clean project you sent me. > **[PDF EXAMPLES](https://bannau-brycheiniog.wales/)** ---

The same in landscape, but I have had a thought! Maybe my Mac default pdf viewer has these controls (the menu bar with page control, scale etc.) but my iPad pdf viewer does not, even though the file is being offered via a browser? Hence the different views? What do you think? ---

I dont think the iPad has a “tool bar” unless you have an app like adobe viewer but I dont know so above my pay grade but I get this ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/4/3/432e67d6ac61fadb87103c18495751a9f0079757.jpeg) ---

So I assume your default project you sent me does not include the toolbar shown on my Computer screen shot? Which would explain the whole thing! If so I am really grateful for your support and help, but I think we have an understanding! ---

Dave this just started off as a project to embed a pdf as I have 6 instructions books in different languages I wanted to put into website. I asked Dan could this be done and he said no so I did an accordion with a fixed picture that changed every time I opened it and then did 3 one for images, one for PDF’s and one for videos, Just embeds really. So that was it people asked for it so did original with the moustachioed couple as a joke really. I know that Steve @upssjw dfid add a project bit to have a toll bar but he’s not releasing until store up and running. Sorry I cant help you achieve what you want! Have a great weekend! ---

I had no idea, it was supplied to me as part of a project exploration. It has been removed. [Previous page](https://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/i-want-to-create-an-ebook-to-publish-on-an-elements-built-site/54491.md?page=2)
