The 7 Best Tools to Present & Share Your PDF Files Online

The 7 Best Tools to Present & Share Your PDF Files Online | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Many websites now offer the facility of being able to host PDF files for easy viewing. The PDF file remains open inside a widget and you can scroll up and down while you read. From the latest Supreme Court rulings to a recipe for chocolate cake, you are likely to find all kinds of PDF’s hosted there.

These kinds of tools are also used to show leaked documents. Famous examples include an early draft of Quentin Tarantino’s “The Hateful Eight“, and 7,000 of Hillary Clinton’s emails.

Other tools enable you to easily convert to PDF. For example, if you have a PowerPoint presentation, you can export it to PDF, end up with better looking slides, and avoid the dreaded “Death By Powerpoint”.

So which are these sites and how do you use them?

Glad you asked. Read on to see some you will already know and use, while others will be less familiar....

Jeff Domansky's insight:

Here's an interesting alternative to boring PowerPoint presentations – consider using PDFs.

Create free presentations without PowerPoint - CNET

Create free presentations without PowerPoint - CNET | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

That said, PowerPoint isn't exactly free, and I suspect most seasoned users would agree it hasn't evolved much over the years. What if you want to integrate, say, a live Twitter feed in your presentation, or move beyond static slides?


Good news: There are plenty of PowerPoint alternatives, some of them free, some of them capable of adding considerably more pizzazz to your materials. In addition to the obvious PowerPoint clones -- Google Docs, OpenOffice Impress, Zoho Show and so on -- make sure to check out these three free outliers...

Jeff Domansky's insight:

Want to build slide decks that really stand out? Try one of these three PowerPoint killers. H/T to Baiba Svenca for this.

Great selection of tools for creating presentations including 

PowToon  for creating animated videos.

Nice info. I write for an MLM magazine and I'm going to spin this as a series. MLM'ers typically sit back and let their companies do everything for them (i.e. on the manner of tools). But in fact, most MLM company's tools suck BIG time.

 

They talk a lot about being hi-tech but very few are in the marketing sense. The big money earners are the ones who are pro-active and build their own systems. This info is stuff they could use. Most of them have no idea the incredible bounty of free-stuff that's out there.
