Why this workflow works
- Share PDFs without sending huge attachments
- Use only documents you have permission to make publicly accessible
- Check sign-in, access, and file limits before upload
- Works alongside compression and ZIP handoff workflows
PDF link
A PDF link points to an uploaded copy of your document; it does not make the file smaller. Check sign-in and file limits, upload only a document you are allowed to share, then test the generated link before sending it. BitePDF share links are public, unlike local compression previews.

Fix resumeYou can check the workflow and file limits first. Creating a public link requires sign-in and the access level shown in the tool before the file is uploaded.
Compress it first when the file is too large to send or store comfortably. If the PDF is already clear and manageable, a link can be the simpler handoff.
Treat the generated URL as public: anyone who receives it may be able to access the document. Do not use it for identity documents, confidential contracts, or candidate records that need restricted access. Local compression and public file hosting are different workflows.
Only if the form explicitly accepts a URL. A link is not a PDF attachment. When a form requires a file, download a suitable PDF and upload that file instead.
