Hello-

I would like to add a 25 page pdf research paper that I wrote to my portfolio. I was only able to upload it as PNGs all being seperate images. Is there a way to add it to my portfolio as a booklet that can be clicked through?

PDF is not a web file.  It's a media file requiring users to have a PDF viewer like Acrobat on their device.

 

The only way you can make files available for download is to host them on a publicly accessible web server or file sharing site like DropBox.  Add the PDF's external link to your Portfolio Link page (see below).

Hope that helps.

I'm not a big fan of <iframes> except for embedded YouTube videos.  For interactive content, it provides a poor user-experience.

not really.

 

you can add it to an iframe and you can use a file server like wetransfer for users to download.
