Hi,

 

The Adobe Reader mobile app has nothing to do with your messaging app.

 

Your messaging app, on the other hand, supports the sharing of PDF files only in its latest version and it is a new feature of the latest version.

 

Also, there is a series of older operating systems for mobile devices that this WhatsApp is not supporting, including  its use in certain countries, banning of some social media services, cease supporr for some devices in February 2020,  to include Windows Phones support.

 

If you need to share  PDFs with your contacts you need to refer to the support website.

 

See here and read thoroughly the how to's:

Hi @Emutebi44,

It seems Adobe apps don’t directly support sharing to WhatsApp. A simple workaround is to upload your document to a cloud service, then use cheetahLinkz.com to shorten the link. Once you have the shortened link, you can easily share it via WhatsApp.

Hope this helps!
