I have installed the plugin: what should I do next?

All the existing PDF files will now open with SimplePDF.eu.

The PDF is not opened with SimplePDF

Do I need a SimplePDF account to use this plugin?

No: the plugin does not require an account to work: all features are available without any account.

What are the differences between using the plugin without and with a SimplePDF account?

Without an account, the plugin will open the PDF editor allowing your visitors to fill in documents and download them.

With an account, the filled in documents will be automatically transmitted to you. You can configure to receive email notifications as well as use your own logo and loading.
