How to share a PDF with a link

Email attachments are annoying. They get lost, blocked by spam filters, or hit size limits. Here's a better way to share PDFs.

The problem with email attachments

• Size limits – Most email providers cap at 25MB
• Version confusion – "Which version did I send?"
• Security filters – Attachments often get blocked
• No tracking – Did they even open it?

The solution: Share a link instead

Instead of attaching a PDF, host it and share a link. Benefits:

• No size limits – Share any file size
• Always current – Update the file, same link
• Works everywhere – Links work in any app
• Trackable – See who views your file

Share legal documents or forms without email size limits.

Portfolios

Designers often have PDF portfolios. Share them instantly:

"My portfolio: portfolio.yourname.bopbee.com"

Pro tips

1. Use descriptive names – "resume-2024" is better than "document"
2. Update in place – Re-upload to the same project to update
3. Add password protection – For sensitive documents
4. Track views – See when and where your PDF was accessed

Embed PDFs in your website:

<iframe 
  src="https://resume.bopbee.com/resume.pdf"
  width="100%" 
  height="600"
  title="My Resume"
></iframe>

The same approach works for any file type:

• Word documents
• Spreadsheets
• Images
• ZIP archives
