The External File Embed and Link plugin allows Obsidian users to embed and link files located outside their vault using relative paths. It supports a variety of file types, including PDFs, images, audio, and videos, ensuring compatibility across devices and platforms. Users can reference files relative to the Home or Vault directory, which is particularly useful for cross-platform workflows. The plugin includes features such as drag-and-drop support, customizable embedding options, and commands for creating file links or embeds via a file picker. Additional parameters enable users to control the display of embedded content, such as PDF page numbers or image dimensions, making it a versatile tool for integrating external resources into Obsidian notes.

The Email Reader plugin allows users to preview the content of `*.eml` email files directly within Obsidian's Preview mode, similar to embedding an image file. Instead of displaying a button that opens the email in an external app, this plugin renders the email content inline within the note. Users can also customize the dimensions of the email frame for better viewing. This is especially useful for keeping email content visible and organized in notes without altering the raw content. The plugin provides a seamless way to integrate emails into the note-taking workflow.
