Add web content to a PDF Portfolio
You can link to websites or embed video tags. Linking to web content is useful when you want to reduce the file size
of the PDF Portfolio.
1 Click the Add Content panel in the Layout pane and select an option for adding content.
2 Select Add Web Content.
3 Enter a filename and description for the web content that gets added to your PDF Portfolio. This web file links to
the web content you specify.
4 Do one of the following:
• To link to a website, select Add A Web Link, and then add the URL.
• To embed a video tag, select Add An Embed Tag, and then paste the video’s embed code. Video-sharing websites
usually include a way to copy a video’s embed code. For example, a website could include an Embed box that
shows the code and other embedding options.
Convert multimedia files in a PDF Portfolio
You can convert the following component multimedia files to PDF within a PDF Portfolio: FLV files, SWF files, F4V,
mp3. You can also convert these files to PDF if they are encoded in H.264 (with AAC audio): MOV, M4V, MP4, 3GP,
and 3G2. (H.264 and AAC are encoding and compression options for movies.)
Note: To convert AVI or WMV files to PDF, or other multimedia file types to FLV format, use the Adobe Media Encoder.
This application is available in the Acrobat X Suite or Creative Suite 5.

Change the PDF Portfolio layout
PDF Portfolio layout options enable you to present content in a layout that best fits your needs. For example, the Click-
Through layout allows readers to flip through files in the PDF Portfolio one at a time. In all layouts, each file appears
on a card with an image (if available) and information about the document, such as the filename.
