Quite often I see questions regarding exactly how to submit or share PDF files on Facebook. At this time, Facebook doesn't support direct uploading of PDF data, but they do support connecting to existing content. So, using this method you can share all your PDF content-- from annual reports to types.
Connecting to existing web content needs that your PDF documents resides somewhere that is publicly available-- like Dropbox or Google Drive. Because I do so much operate 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 solution is particularly useful since your PDF documents can be accessed from any type of computer or mobile device, which is ideal for Facebook. If you do not have Acrobat or Visitor installed on your system, you can likewise create your own complimentary account on Acrobat.com and also gain access to it using your internet browser.
First, I'll publish my PDF data to Acrobat.com. You can either do this by pointing your browser to files.acrobat.com and also finalizing in. Or, from within Acrobat or Viewers by clicking on the cloud icon in the toolbar, which will publish your PDF documents to Acrobat.com. I'll utilize the cloud symbol from within Acrobat.
Next off, open your web internet browser and also browse to files.acrobat.com and also sign in if you haven't already. Examine package next to your PDF file as well as click the Send out Submit icon.
Under Send out To examine the Public Link box as well as click the Create Link switch.
As soon as the public web link is generated pick the text in the link and copy it and click Close.
Open your Facebook web page as well as paste the web link right into a status update (don't struck Article yet).
The lengthy URL has a lot gobbledygook in it so proceed as well as remove it by highlighting the link as well as striking the erase secret. Following tailor the common link title by hovering over the Shared Files-- Acrobat.com text till it highlights in yellow and then click on it to change it to something extra purposeful.
