PDF Portfolios

Creating a PDF Portfolio
Quickly pull together all the files for a project into a single, coherent PDF Portfolio. These files can include text
documents, email messages, spreadsheets, CAD drawings, PowerPoint presentations, videos, PDFs, and more. You
don’t have to convert the component documents to PDF, and you can edit each component independently without
affecting anything else in the PDF Portfolio.

1 Create the PDF Portfolio file.

In Acrobat, choose File > Create PDF Portfolio. The PDF Portfolio toolbar appears below the menu bar; Acrobat
displays this toolbar whenever you open a PDF Portfolio. In Acrobat 9 Pro and Acrobat 9 Pro Extended, the Edit
PDF Portfolio pane is open on the right side of the window.

2 Add files to the PDF Portfolio.

Choose Modify > Add Files in the PDF Portfolio toolbar. Navigate to the files you want to include. Select a file, and
click Open. Shift-select to add multiple contiguous files; press Ctrl to select multiple files in any order.
