Office files rendered by Microsoft, not by a converter.

Most embed plugins push your Word and Excel files through a third-party converter, and complex layouts come out broken — tables collapse, fonts change, slide animations disappear. Document Viewer uses Microsoft’s own Office Web Viewer, the same engine behind Office Online, so a .docx looks like a .docx and an .xlsx keeps its columns.

Your visitors read the file on the page. No download, no Office installation, no conversion step for you.

Live Demo | Pricing | Support

Two viewer engines, both free

• Microsoft Office Web Viewer — the best choice for Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Formatting, tables, charts and slide layouts stay intact because Microsoft renders them.
• Google Docs Viewer — a good fallback, and it handles PDF well.

Switch between them with a dropdown. No account and no API key for either.

What you can embed

Word — .doc, .docx
Excel — .xls, .xlsx
PowerPoint — .ppt, .pptx
PDF — .pdf

Files can come from your Media Library or from a direct URL.

Why people use this one

• A spreadsheet that still looks like a spreadsheet. Google’s viewer often flattens Excel formatting. Microsoft’s does not.
• No conversion. You do not turn a .docx into a PDF or an HTML table first. Upload the file you already have.
• Visitors do not need Office. They read it in the browser, on a phone as easily as a desktop.
• It stays small. One shortcode, one block, a handful of settings. If you want a document library, a flipbook and sixteen file formats, that is a different plugin.

Who uses it for what

• Schools and training sites — handouts and slide decks students read in the browser.
• Theatre, events and clubs — schedules and scripts shared with cast and crew.
• Accountants and consultants — rate cards and spreadsheets a client reads without downloading.
• Councils and associations — minutes, forms and policies published as the Word files they already keep.
• Internal pages — a price list or process document embedded on a members-only page.

How to add a document

Gutenberg block

1. Open any post or page in the Block Editor.
2. Add the Document Viewer block.
3. Upload a file or paste a URL, choose the viewer, set the size.

The block settings are grouped into four panels — Document Source, Viewer Engine, Display Dimensions, and Security Restrictions — so you are not hunting through one long sidebar.

Shortcode

Use [office_doc] anywhere shortcodes run, including Elementor, Divi, Bricks, WPBakery, Beaver Builder and Oxygen. Generate one from the document’s edit screen and paste it in.

Free features

• Two viewer engines — Microsoft Office Web Viewer and Google Docs Viewer.
• Gutenberg block with grouped settings panels.
• [office_doc] shortcode for the Classic Editor and page builders.
• Custom width and height so the viewer fits your layout.
• Dedicated document screen for managing the files you embed.

Document Viewer Pro

• Cloud sources — pick documents straight from Google Drive, OneDrive or Dropbox.
• Download button — show a download button on the toolbar, or leave it off.
• Filename display — show or hide the document title above the viewer.
• Pop-out control — stop visitors opening the document in a separate window.
• Content protection — disable right-click, text selection and the Ctrl/Cmd + C, A, S, P shortcuts.
• Full-screen control — allow or block full-screen viewing.
