Can Google Slides be previewed in PDF Generator, and what link format is needed?

[kiya]

I want to embed Google Slides using the PDF Generator plugin and display a live preview on the frontend. Does the plugin support previewing Google Slides directly, and what is the correct Google Slides link format (published or embed link) required for it to work properly?

Yes, you can embed Google Slides and display a preview on the frontend using the PDF Generator Gutenberg block, as long as the slide is publicly accessible.

To make it work correctly, follow these steps:

• Open your Google Slides presentation.
• Go to File → Share → Publish to web.
• Publish the presentation and copy the embed or published link.
• Paste this link into the Google Embed Gutenberg block provided by the PDF Generator plugin.

Make sure the slide’s sharing settings are set to “Anyone with the link can view.”
If the presentation is private or not published to the web, it will not display in the preview.

Using the correct published or embed URL ensures the Google Slides preview loads properly on the frontend.

For detailed, step-by-step instructions, you can also check the official PDF Generator documentation.
