Use case · Catalogs & brochures
Product catalogs, image brochures, lookbooks and exposés: publish the PDF you already have with page-flip reading – and add product videos, 3D models and image slideshows where a photo is not enough.
Live example
MBG Group turned the B2B sales folder of its snack brand CRACKZ into an interactive experience: product animations play right on the pages.

The problem
Catalogs and brochures are designed for print: dozens of pages, large images and no room for movement. As a download they are heavy and hard to read on a phone – and you never learn which products readers actually looked at.
The Viewnamic way
Viewnamic shows your catalog exactly as designed – as a page-flip magazine or a scrolling document – and lets you add media to the pages that need them.
Features
Publish the catalog as it is – or bring single pages to life where a photo is not enough.
Double-page spreads with a realistic page-turn effect for the catalog feeling – or smooth scrolling on phones.
Show the whole collection or every angle of a product in one spot – without adding pages.
Let a product move: an animation, a demo or a look behind the scenes right next to the product photo.
Readers switch between colours, materials or models in a click dummy – one page instead of five.
Turn every product photo into a link to its page in your shop or to your request form.
Collect all public catalogs and brochures on one page in your design – one link for your whole library.
How it works
No new design, no plugins, no special software for your readers.
Use the print PDF – layout, fonts and images stay exactly as designed.
Place product videos, image slideshows, 3D models or shop links on the pages that need them – or publish the catalog as it is.
Share the link, embed the catalog on your website or list it on your public page – depending on your plan.
Branding
Show your logo and colours in the viewer and link back to your website – so your catalog looks like part of your brand, not like a file on a third-party platform.

Comparison
Viewnamic keeps your original PDF file size unchanged when adding videos – unlike Adobe, which embeds media directly into the file. And it offers a true PDF viewer that preserves layout and readability, while flipbook tools convert your document into their own format and usually offer only page-flip.
