Website owners, bloggers, webmasters and content
producers can celebrate! Place Google Docs on a site in
an iframe via edocr, or share to social media. Edit at will
on your Google Drive to update the content for web
viewing without breaking the edocr URL, even while
protecting your master document from the world. It has
never been easier to upload and update a blog, calendar,
menu, announcement or any other content than it is now
with edocr. Small, rapidly changing events, calendars,
notices or announcements now can exist on a web page,
and anyone (with your permission) can update within your
Google document without touching the website code!
You can now create a share directly from a Google Doc (or
Google Sheets or Google Slides) and have it published on
edocr, which in turn can be displayed in any browser via a
web link or embedded in a web page. Create stunning
documents, blog posts, notices, or any other content from
your Google Drive and share it with whomever you want,
without exposing your Google Drive to anyone. And here’s
the best part: When you make a change to your Google
Doc, those changes are automatically updated to your
published share, so you can live update on the web!
(edocr Premium Only)
This feature is great for all sorts of small businesses and
associations that want to make frequent changes to their
website, but don't have the resources to have a web
developer on standby, ready to upload immediate
changes. Examples include a Google Sheets calendar you
want to keep updated, or a daily special the restaurant
owner wants to post daily without having to post a new link
each day. Bloggers can use it to create posts and status
updates without confusing followers with a different link
each and every day. Small businesses can post employee
schedules. Place a Google Slides slide deck with timer on
your website. A fishing charter can post their availability.
And I bet you can think of hundreds of more examples and
uses.
Here is a live example of a Google Sheets Calendar:

All of this can be done while ensuring documents remain
uncompromised and updated when needed. You can even
control and restrict printing, downloading, copying and
sharing straight from edocr in the Privacy settings when
creating your document to share.
Get Started
(We are assuming you have an edocr account already by now, and have
clicked the 'Upload' button to create a new share - if not, visit:
https://www.edocr.com/help/getting-started)
1.Open the Google Doc or Sheet or Slide and click the
blue “Share” button in the top right hand corner.
2. Select the drop down list under “Link sharing on” and
click “More…”
3. Select “Anyone with the link” and hit Save.
4.When publishing on edocr, copy the URL and paste it
into “Enter a URL” during the Upload process.
5. (use this step for changes) When you make a change
in order to update your document or sheet on Google,
go to the edocr view of that same document or sheet,
and hit the little 'Refresh' link from the sidebar of the
edocr page, and the new content is now live on the
internet under the same URL link as before (or if the
iframe is embedded, it is now showing the new
content).
Congratulations! You’ve now learned how to use Google
Docs to publish your documents via edocr!
OK, we said you could place this document on your web
page or blog, so if you are ready for that next step,
continue reading the Embeddable Viewer blog post.
