One exciting feature of the AdRotate Pro plugin included with our WordPress CMS is the ability to display an ad or a group of ads only when viewing a specific category, allowing you to sell targeted advertising opportunities to your clients. A local sporting goods store, for example, may be interested in placing an ad that only shows on Sports articles, where readers are more likely to be interested in their products. […]

If you publish your PDF E-Editions and/or any PDF Special Sections to your website, chances are that at one point or another, you’ve uploaded a PDF page that contained an error that needed to be corrected.
