VirtualCMS.net is not the only popular platform running on WordPress technology. The New York Times, The Washington Post, Harvard University, and numerous other institutions leverage the power of WordPress as they disseminate content.
 
As often seen on these sites is an embedded document or embedded slide show that looks and feels like a PDF, however is actually a rich document powered by ScribD’s iPaper. iPaper is free to use and quickly extends the audience of your content while presenting it in a clean and professional format. iPaper automatically scrapes your rich documents for text and applies techniques to allow search engines to index your data.
 
To use iPaper technology you will need to follow four steps:
1. Sign up for an account at ScribD.com – it is free
2. Download and install the iPaper Plugin from http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/zd-scribd-ipaper.zip – VirtualCMS.net customers can simply put in a support request to have the module installed
3. Publish your content to ScribD
4. In your WordPress post simply type in {scribd id=DOCUMENTIDHERE key=ACCESSKEYHERE height=500 width=640 /} (replace the { and } with [ and ])
 
 
For content producers such as authors, researchers, and journalists who base their livelihood on royalties, ScribD can host your content securely and resell copies of it. There is no up front costs and they simply take a percentage of each sale.
