 * Hi,
 * I’m wondering if this can be done. My users have a custom boolean field I am 
   hoping can be used to determine if the embedded pdf should have the download 
   button displayed or not.
 * By default, the embeds are all put as canDownload = false. Can this be changed
   based on the user viewing the page?

 * Hi,
 * yes, this can be done with custom code.. If you have already a user settings 
   you can change pdf settings with a filter.
 * Basically you can filter the `render_block` and read logged in user preferences
   and modify the pdf options on per user settings.
