Share TIFF and PSD Files via Adobe Document Cloud
Adobe Send (now integrated into Adobe Document Cloud and Acrobat) allows you to upload and share large image files securely via a shared link.
While Adobe Send is primarily designed for PDF documents, it functions as a robust file-sharing platform capable of handling various formats, including heavy TIFF and PSD design files.
Log in to Adobe Acrobat online or the Document Cloud web interface using your Adobe ID credentials.
Locate and click on the 'Share' or 'Send' tab from the main dashboard menu.
Click 'Select Files to Send' and choose your TIFF or PSD files from your local drive.
Enter the recipient's email address to send a direct notification, or choose to generate an anonymous link to share the files manually.
Convert TIFF and PSD to PDF Before Sharing
If you encounter format restrictions or compatibility issues, converting these image files to PDF ensures they can be opened easily on any device by the recipient.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a file size limit when using Adobe Send?
Yes, file size limits depend on your specific Adobe Document Cloud subscription plan. Free users typically have lower upload limits compared to paid Acrobat Pro subscribers.
Can recipients open shared PSD files if they do not have Photoshop?
If you share the raw PSD file via Adobe Send, the recipient will need Photoshop or a compatible third-party viewer to open and edit it. To ensure they can view the file, consider converting the PSD to a PDF or JPEG before sharing.
Why are TIFF files generally too large to send via standard email?
TIFF files are typically lossless and uncompressed, preserving extremely high image quality. Because of this, they can easily exceed standard email attachment limits (usually 20-25 MB), making cloud sharing services the best method for transfer.
What file formats are restricted on Adobe Document Cloud?
Adobe typically blocks executable files (such as .exe or .bat) and certain types of archives to prevent malware distribution. Standard image formats like TIFF, PSD, JPEG, and PNG are generally supported.
