How to decide the size measurements for an A4 sized PDF file in XD?

[dehsenr]

I am designing my portfolio in Adobe XD.

Can someone please tell me what the size measurements are to have an a4 sized PDF file.

I am going to design my portfolio for employment, and export it to PDF

Hi there,

Thank you for reaching out. I did a brief internet search and got this chart for the size that supports print.

I am also keeping the discussion open for our experts if they want to share some specifics.

Hope it helps.

Thanks,

Harshika

Hi @dehsenr,

Use the right tools for the job.

Adobe Portfolio is a free website included with your paid Creative Cloud membership.  It's specifically designed for showcasing examples of your best creative work online for prospective employers and clients to see.  Best of all, they don't need to download anything.  It's online 24/7.

Next, create your Curriculum Vitae or Resume with your favorite desktop publishing software  -- MS Word, Google Docs, or InDesign and export it PDF.

Be sure to keep the native text file in a safe place as you will need to update this document throughout your professional career.   It's much quicker to update than it is to create a whole new document each time. 😉

Upload your CV/Resume to DropBox.  From Portfolio, add an external link to the PDF for employers to download if they wish.  I would also create an HTML version in Portfolio for more convenient online viewing.

Hope that helps.
