# Can dropbox pdf display on Squarespace?

Dec 5

Written By Beyondspace

Yes, a PDF from Dropbox can be displayed on Squarespace using the Lightbox Studio plugin. However, you need to ensure that you use the correct Dropbox link format. Here are the steps to do so:

1. **Installer Lightbox Studio**  on your Squarespace site.
2. **Upload the PDF to Dropbox.**
3. **Copy the Dropbox share link** and change the domain from `https://www.dropbox.com`à `https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com`. This is necessary because the original Dropbox URLs do not support CORS, which is required for displaying PDFs in a lightbox.

   - *Pro tip:* You can use a free dev tool to quickly convert your PDF link to a downloadable link.
4. **Create a text or button link** to the PDF, ensuring that "Open link in new tab" is unchecked.
5. Your Dropbox PDF will now open in a lightbox when clicked.

For more detailed guidance, you can refer to the tutorial on opening Dropbox PDF files in a Squarespace lightbox.Ω
