Saving a pdf created as a standalone file

[T0D44]

Hello. I recently purchased a one year subscription for Acrobat Pro DC the primary reason for the

purchase was to create pdf versions of certain documents. When I converted a document I was unable to save it as a standalone document for me to send by email. I could only send a link. This is of no use to me whatsoever. Please explain how I may save a pdf document I have created as a standalone file and not a link. I was also concerned to note a warning that documents created by me may be deleted from my queue, but are not permanently deleted. I consider there are General Data Protection Regulation implications here and should like confirmation that if I delete a document it is permanently deleted. I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks

If you are subscribed to Acrobat Pro DC, you should have downloaded and installed the application.  Then, after signing in with your username/password from the app, you should be able to save PDF files anywhere you wish.  Did you install the application?

My best,

Dave

After saving the file you can send it.

Hi T0D44

You may have worked out your issue. I'll add what I'm guessing happened. When using Acrobat Pro DC, you can edit a PDF and save the file anywhere. Perhaps you were saving it to a cloud storage and the link you felt you were only able to send was to the cloud location. Your PDF can be saved on your computer, external device or other place of your choosing and then attached to an email to pass on to others.
