How can I make a PDF art portfolio without Acrobat?

Recommended Posts

I need to make a PDF portfolio for a job application but only have a very old & basic free version of Acrobat,

Is there a way of making a professional looking pdf portfolio for free? I don’t want to have to pay for a pro version of Acrobat or to sign up for a ‘free ‘ trial. thanks for any suggestions.

Two options

If building your portfolio using something like Microsoft Office, there's the option to do "Save As" then select PDF as the file format


Second is search for online PDF tools that allow you to do a certain number of tasks for free per day


Failing that you can pay online to get it converted to the format you need


Hope it helps

If I’m understanding you right and you want to simply get a collection of visual images captured in a PDF, I would get all the photos or images in a directory then create a new PDF and then use the page editing tool to select the files in that directory and it will just load them up as pages. You can rearrange their order after the fact using Page editing tool.

I have very rudimentary knowledge but I’ve done things like that.

    • If I buy a soap dispenser and want it to produce foam, do I need to add water? What is the ratio of water to hand soap? 
    • That's a good idea smiley blue , if you or anyone else comes across petitions to end these despicable acts of cruelty to defenceless animals please put on here or start a new thread if you please so we can sign the petition and add our objections to this , I would also like to thank all of you the people for reading these messages and adding your voices to this cruelty,  maybe we can end it 
    • Malumbu, by that measure are police efforts to cut down on anti-social driving by issuing tickets and fines a token effort as well? Surely punitive measures for cyclists breaking the rules will encourage them not to break the rules again? A bit like when you got stopped and taken into the cab of an HGV. The police are currently using that tactic to show those who break the rules cycling that it might lead them to being hit by a lorry due to the driver's having limited vision - the cycling equivalent of a speed awareness course for drivers.    When they stopped you was it because you had broken a rule or was it just more of an education programme and they asked you to take a look and did it change your cycling behaviour in any way? As I said previously there are those who break the rules on cycling out of ignorance (and those out of arrogance) and I am sure they are using HGVs to educate those in the ignorance category and then hitting those in the arrogance category with the PCNs.    
    • Good that PETA is on it but can we add our voices to the fight against this horrible practice? I’m still shocked! A petition maybe? Happy to raise to the RSPCA but don’t want to duplicate efforts. I’ve signed campaigns from RSPCA before which sends it directly to your councillor
