Access Sent Files via Adobe Document Cloud
Log into your Adobe Acrobat account online to view previously sent documents and their associated details directly from the Files tab.
Adobe Document Cloud automatically logs and stores documents you share for review, signatures, or viewing, provided the files have not been manually deleted.
Navigate to the Adobe Acrobat online portal at https://cloud.acrobat.com and sign in securely using your Adobe account credentials.
Once logged into your dashboard, locate and click on the 'Files' tab in the main navigation menu or the sidebar to access your document repository.
Browse the directory for your shared documents. You can view all files sent over the last six months and click on individual files to retrieve associated sharing details and tracking data.

Manage and Share Documents Easily with WPS Office
While Adobe Acrobat is highly utilized for PDFs, WPS Office provides a free, lightweight, and comprehensive suite for editing, managing, and sharing PDFs alongside Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files. With full format compatibility and seamless cloud integration, tracking your shared documents is incredibly straightforward.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why can't I find a file I sent three months ago in my Adobe account?
If a file sent within the last six months is missing, it may have been manually deleted from your cloud storage or the sharing link might have expired. Check your deleted files folder or your document sharing settings.
Can I view who has opened the files I sent?
Yes, if you utilized Adobe Acrobat's 'Track' feature when sending the document, you can view the associated details, including whether the recipient has opened, viewed, or downloaded the file.
Do sent files take up my Adobe Cloud storage space?
Yes, documents uploaded and sent via Adobe Document Cloud count against your total cloud storage quota unless they are sent strictly as external attachments without cloud hosting.
Can I recover sent files if I accidentally delete them from the Files tab?
Files deleted from the Adobe Cloud Files tab are typically moved to a 'Deleted' or 'Trash' folder, where they can be restored within a specific timeframe (usually 30 days) before being permanently erased.
