Pdf to Facebook

Quite often I see questions about how to upload or share PDF files on Facebook. At this time, Facebook doesn't support direct uploading of PDF files, but they do sustain connecting to existing content. So, utilizing this technique you can share all your PDF content-- from annual reports to types.

Linking to existing web content calls for that your PDF file stays somewhere that is openly easily accessible-- like Dropbox or Google Drive. Because I do so much operate in Acrobat, I'm going to utilize the Acrobat.com cloud service, which is directly integrated with Acrobat and Adobe Viewers. This cloud-based solution is particularly useful due to the fact that your PDF documents can be accessed from any kind of computer or mobile device, which is ideal for Facebook. If you don't have Acrobat or Viewers set up on your system, you can also create your very own totally free account on Acrobat.com and gain access to it utilizing your internet browser.

First, I'll publish my PDF documents to Acrobat.com. You can either do this by directing your web browser to files.acrobat.com and finalizing in. Or, from within Acrobat or Viewers by clicking on the cloud symbol in the toolbar, which will certainly post your PDF documents to Acrobat.com. I'll utilize the cloud symbol from within Acrobat.

Next, open your web browser as well as browse to files.acrobat.com as well as sign in if you have not already. Inspect the box beside your PDF file and click the Send Submit icon.

Under Send To inspect the Public Link box as well as click the Produce Web link switch.

When the public web link is produced choose the text in the web link as well as duplicate it as well as click Close.

Open your Facebook web page and paste the web link into a condition upgrade (do not struck Article yet).

The long LINK has a great deal gobbledygook in it so go on and also delete it by highlighting the web link and also striking the erase trick. Next tailor the common link title by floating over the Shared Data-- Acrobat.com text till it highlights in yellow and afterwards click on it to change it to something extra meaningful.
