Creating a PDF portfolio

The PDF portfolio offers the possibility to put together documents in different formats in a kind of collection folder.

What is a PDF portfolio?

The PDF portfolio can be seen as the equivalent of a zip file. In such a portfolio, PDF documents and other file formats can be combined in a collective container.

The advantage is that a wide range of file formats can be contained here, which may have originated from different applications. You can therefore comfortably combine text documents, e-mails, table formats, PowerPoint presentations, videos and much more in a collective file, while retaining the original format of the files. The individual components can be added or removed at any time.

In a PDF portfolio, it is also possible to create and manage folder structures (as in ZIP files). Since a PDF portfolio does not comply with the PDF/A standard, it is not suitable for long-term archiving.
