How can I make a PDF art portfolio without Acrobat?

[Naiada]

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 you don't have Microsoft Office you could also use LibreOffice, which is free, and use the "Export as PDF" function.

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.
