Adding Flipbook to a WordPress Page

From the 3D Flipbook you just created, copy the shortcode from 'Shortcode' box. Similar to [dflip id="525"][/dflip]
Goto the page where you want to insert the flipbook and paste the shortcode

Creating a PDF Flipbook with just PDF File URL
You can create a flipbook with just the link and without creating the dFlip post
1. Goto the page where you want to create a flipbook from pdf
2. Use a shortcode to embed the flipbook: [dflip source="example.com/wp-content/uploads/file.pdf"]
source is the link to the PDF file that you want to convert to Flipbook
PDF links are not working!

PDF links are a premium feature in Dear Flipbook, and won't be displayed in lite version of Dear Flipbook - 3D Flipbook WordPress Plugin. You can test your PDF links to check how they work in our online PDF Flipbook Viewer.
Also pay attention that some desktop readers' auto convert URL texts to links and give an assumption that those are links. Such links won't work in every reader and device. One of the popular cases is Adobe PDF Reader: it auto-converts the text URLs to links in desktop but not in mobile apps. So we suggest defining links explicitly and not rely on PDF reader's auto conversion capability.

Start or open a 3D Flipbook at a certain page?
You can set the opening page of a flipbook with shortcode:
[dflip id="123" data-page=5]
This will create your PDF flipbook or image flipbook to open at page 5 when it starts.
What is better? PDF embed or lightbox PDF viewer?
We recommend to use lightbox for PDF viewer instead of PDF embed viewer. Using embed can result in extra bandwidth for the PDF documents even if the user maynot view the document.
