Deprecated macros for Confluence

About a year ago we introduced a fantastic new files experience, which allows you to upload, preview and comment on files, including Office and PDF documents. In order to focus our development efforts on the new files experience, we have decided to end support for the following, older, View File macros:

  • Office Excel
  • Office Word
  • Office PowerPoint
  • PDF

End of support means we're no longer actively developing or fixing bugs related to these macros. We plan to eventually remove these macros, but will provide plenty of notice and information when the time comes.

The View File macros are still available in your Confluence site, but we recommend inserting Office and PDF files as a thumbnail or link, and using the preview to view the file in full, as it provides a much better way to display Office and PDF files on your pages. See Display files and images for more info.
