How to Add PDF Search to Your Bubble Site
Sparks Simple embeds in your Bubble site in Under 5 minutes. No coding required.
Why it matters
Why add PDF search to your Bubble site?
Visitors on Bubblesites expect to find information fast. If you’re hosting PDFs — guides, contracts, menus, manuals, resource libraries — a search widget lets them find exactly what they need without downloading anything or sending you an email.
Sparks Simple gives your Bubble site an embeddable search widget that indexes your PDFs and returns instant, full-text results — right on your page. Clients and visitors stay on your site, find what they need, and stop calling your office asking for documents they should already have.
No portal. No login required from visitors. No custom development. Just paste one line of code.

Bubble tip
The HTML element in Bubble renders raw code client-side, making it fully compatible with the Sparks Simple script embed. Set a fixed height on the HTML element in the layout panel so the widget is not clipped. The widget will render in both the Bubble preview and the live deployed app.
