On a regular basis I see inquiries regarding exactly how to post or share PDF documents on Facebook. At this time, Facebook does not support direct uploading of PDF documents, yet they do sustain linking to existing web content. So, using this strategy you can share all your PDF content-- from annual reports to kinds.
Connecting to existing material needs that your PDF documents lives somewhere that is publicly available-- like Dropbox or Google Drive. Given that I do so much work in Acrobat, I'm going to utilize the Acrobat.com cloud solution, which is directly incorporated with Acrobat and also Adobe Reader. This cloud-based service is particularly valuable since your PDF documents can be accessed from any type of computer system or smart phone, which is excellent for Facebook. If you don't have Acrobat or Viewers set up on your system, you can additionally develop your own complimentary account on Acrobat.com as well as gain access to it utilizing your internet browser.
Initially, I'll upload my PDF documents to Acrobat.com. You can either do this by aiming your internet browser to files.acrobat.com and signing in. Or, from within Acrobat or Viewers by clicking the cloud symbol in the toolbar, which will certainly upload your PDF documents to Acrobat.com. I'll make use of the cloud icon from within Acrobat.
Next, open your internet browser and navigate to files.acrobat.com as well as sign in if you have not currently. Examine package alongside your PDF file as well as click the Send out Submit icon.
Under Send out To inspect the Public Web link box as well as click the Create Web link button.
When the general public link is generated choose the text in the web link and copy it and also click Close.
Open your Facebook page as well as paste the web link into a status update (do not struck Blog post yet).
The long URL has a great deal babble in it so go on as well as delete it by highlighting the link and striking the erase secret. Following customize the generic link title by floating over the Shared Files-- Acrobat.com text till it highlights in yellow and after that click it to transform it to something a lot more purposeful.
