• The PDF Portfolio toolbar is located immediately below the main toolbar. You can perform common tasks such as,
adding files or folders, creating a new folder, extracting component file, or deleting a component file.
• The left navigation pane lists the files and folders included in the PDF Portfolio. By default, the files and folders are
displayed alphabetically. You can change the order by configuring the sort order in the Portfolio Properties dialog
box.
• The Previous and Next buttons allow you to scroll through the files and folders included in the PDF Portfolio. A
preview of the selected file is displayed by default. However, if the component file is a non-PDF file, then a Preview
button is displayed in the document area. Clicking the Preview button allows you to view the file’s contents in the
PDF Portfolio itself.
• The Open Document link opens the selected component file for editing. If it is a PDF file, then the file is opened in
the document area where you can work on it like any other PDF document. Else, if the file is non-PDF, then it is
opened in its native application. Once you make changes in the component file and save it, the newer content is
made available in the PDF Portfolio.
• Layout (Preview mode) shows the preview of the component file in the PDF Portfolio depending on the type of file.
For information about each type of preview, see
Portfolio view modes
• Details or Files mode shows the file details in a list. You can click a column name to sort by ascending and
descending order.
A PDF Portfolio is accessible when it opens in Details or Files mode. This mode provides a better reading experience
for people with disabilities—such as mobility impairments, blindness, and low vision. To open all PDF Portfolios in
Files mode, open the Preferences dialog box by choosing Edit > Preferences (Windows). In Acrobat DC only, choose
Acrobat > Preferences (Mac OS). Under Categories, select Accessibility, and then select Show Portfolios In Files
Mode.
