Real3D Flipbook – 3D FlipBook, PDF FlipBook, PDF Viewer, PDF Embedder for WordPress Plugin Directory

Live Demo

Try Your PDF

Create a 3D flipbook in WordPress in three steps:

Upload a PDF or a set of images.

Choose a viewer mode.

Paste the shortcode, or drop the Real3D Flipbook block into any page or post.

No conversion service, no account, no per-book fees – your PDF files stay on your own server.

Works for magazines, catalogs, brochures, restaurant menus, portfolios, real estate listings, annual reports, newsletters, ebooks and product manuals.

Readers get a realistic, interactive 3D flipbook with a lifelike page-turning effect: pages bend and cast shadows as they turn, and it works on all devices and browsers – swipe to flip on a phone, tap to zoom, open it inline or in a lightbox. Prefer something plainer? The same PDF can be displayed as a scroll, slide or simple PDF viewer instead, by changing one setting.
