- Product
- Adobe Acrobat Workspaces
- Device & OS
- not provided
- Scenario
- Managing and distributing multiple PDF files stored in cloud folders.
- Observed behavior
- The system requires users to handle each file individually, lacking a direct option for bulk folder sharing or downloading.
Verify your account login and ensure you have sufficient local storage space or bandwidth before attempting to manually download multiple large PDF files.
Download and Share Files Individually
Since Acrobat Workspaces does not support bulk folder downloading or sharing, files must be processed one by one.
Acrobat.com (Acrobat Workspaces) currently lacks a native feature to select an entire folder for sharing or downloading. To access or distribute your files, you must use the individual file actions.
Log in to your Acrobat.com account and navigate to the specific workspace folder containing your PDF files.
Click on the first PDF file you wish to download or share to open its file properties or context menu.
Choose the 'Download' option to save the file to your local computer, or select 'Share' to generate a link to send to collaborators.
Proceed to the next file in the folder and repeat the individual download or share process until all necessary documents have been handled.
Share Entire Folders Seamlessly with WPS Office
Unlike Acrobat.com, WPS Office provides integrated cloud storage (WPS Drive) that allows you to manage, download, and share entire folders of PDF documents and Office files with a single link.
- 1. Upload to WPS Cloud: Open WPS Office, navigate to the 'Cloud' tab, and upload your folder containing the PDF files.
- 2. Right-click the folder: Locate the uploaded folder in your WPS Drive workspace, right-click on it, and select 'Share'.
- 3. Configure permissions: Set your desired access permissions, such as view-only or editable, and set a validity period if needed.
- 4. Send the link: Copy the generated sharing link and send it to your team, allowing them to download or view the entire folder at once.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I compress the Acrobat folder to download it?
Acrobat Workspaces does not offer a native 'zip and download' feature for folders. You must download the files individually and then compress them on your local computer.
Is there a third-party tool to batch download Acrobat.com folders?
No official third-party integrations support batch downloading directly from Acrobat Workspaces due to API and platform restrictions. Manual individual downloading is required.
How can I share multiple PDFs without sending individual links?
You can download the PDFs individually to your local drive, place them in a folder, compress the folder into a ZIP file, and then share the single ZIP file via email or a cloud storage service.
