Quite often I see inquiries regarding exactly how to upload or share PDF documents on Facebook. Right now, Facebook doesn't sustain straight uploading of PDF data, however they do support connecting to existing content. So, using this strategy you can share all your PDF material-- from annual reports to forms.
Linking to existing web content needs that your PDF file resides somewhere that is openly accessible-- like Dropbox or Google Drive. Considering that I do so much work in Acrobat, I'm mosting likely to use the Acrobat.com cloud service, which is straight incorporated with Acrobat as well as Adobe Viewers. This cloud-based solution is especially valuable due to the fact that your PDF data can be accessed from any computer system or mobile device, which is excellent for Facebook. If you don't have Acrobat or Viewers set up on your system, you can also create your own free account on Acrobat.com as well as access it utilizing your web internet browser.
First, I'll submit my PDF file to Acrobat.com. You can either do this by pointing your web browser to files.acrobat.com as well as finalizing in. Or, from within Acrobat or Visitor by clicking on the cloud icon in the toolbar, which will certainly submit your PDF file to Acrobat.com. I'll utilize the cloud icon from within Acrobat.
Next, open your web browser and navigate to files.acrobat.com and sign in if you haven't already. Check package next to your PDF data and click the Send out File icon.
Under Send To check the Public Link box as well as click the Produce Link switch.
Once the general public link is generated select the text in the web link and also copy it and click Close.
Open your Facebook page and also paste the web link into a status update (do not hit Blog post yet).
The lengthy URL has a lot babble in it so proceed as well as remove it by highlighting the link as well as striking the erase trick. Next personalize the common link title by hovering over the Shared Documents-- Acrobat.com text until it highlights in yellow and afterwards click on it to alter it to something much more meaningful.
