Benjamin André-MicolonYou have embed SimplePDF in your own website or React app and you want to tailor it to your use-case.
The obvious first need is to use your own logo
And you may be using SimplePDF for one of the following use-cases:
- Offer a fill & sign PDF documents
- Allow annotating documents before sending them to you
- Use it to stitch documents together ("merge PDF")
- A RAG dataloader for your AI work-flow, uploading automatically the document to your storage
In that case, you won't need most of the other features of the PDF editor and you may want to hide certain tools and options, keeping it simple and focused on your specific use-case.
