How to post PDF's as photos in a LinkedIn carousel post?

With Stack’s Social Planner, you can now transform your PDFs into engaging photo carousels on LinkedIn. This feature allows you to convert each page of a PDF into separate images, perfect for sharing on LinkedIn and other social platforms. LinkedIn PDF Carousels are an excellent way to captivate your audience and demonstrate your expertise.

Creating a LinkedIn Carousel Post

Here’s how you can create a LinkedIn Carousel or Document Post using Stack:

1. Access the Social Planner

   • Go to Marketing > Social Planner in your Stack account.

2. Connect Your LinkedIn Account

   • Ensure your LinkedIn account, whether a page or profile, is connected.

3. Compose a New Post

   • Click on New Post to open the post composer.

4. Select Your Social Platforms

   • Choose LinkedIn and any other social platforms from the dropdown menu.
   • Add the content you wish to include in your post.

5. Upload Your PDFs

   • Click the file upload icon, positioned between the image and video upload icons.
   • Upload one or more PDFs to create a LinkedIn carousel, or import photos to compile into a PDF for posting.

6. Customize Your PDF

   • You can rename the PDF or add a watermark if needed.

Important Considerations

• LinkedIn Limits: Each document can have up to 300 pages and must be under 100 MB.
• Image Conversion: When PDFs are imported, they are converted into images. If you select Instagram, images will be automatically cropped to fit Instagram’s aspect ratio.
• Media Management: You can remove media by hovering over the media preview and clicking the ‘X’.
• Posting as PDF: If you choose to post as a PDF, all images are compiled into a PDF for LinkedIn.
