How to make a LinkedIn PDF carousel
Make a PDF with one slide per page, every page the same size (1080×1350 pixels, 4:5 portrait, fills the most mobile screen), a hook on page one, one idea per page and an ask at the end. LinkedIn accepts PDFs up to 100 MB and 300 pages, but 6–10 slides is plenty. Upload it with “Add a document” in a new post. The free maker below builds that PDF from your text, a link or a YouTube video, with no sign-up.
Step by step
- Write or paste your content: a hook line, then one short point per slide (25 words or fewer each).
- Paste it into the Text tab below (or use a link or YouTube video), pick a template and a slide count.
- Edit the slides, then download the PDF. Every page is 1080×1350, so the carousel never jumps between sizes.
- On LinkedIn, click “Start a post”, then “More” → “Add a document”, upload the PDF, add a title and post.

FAQ
What are LinkedIn's limits for document posts?
Per LinkedIn Help: PDF, PPT, PPTX, DOC or DOCX, up to 100 MB and 300 pages. Pages of different sizes must be fitted to one size, and animations show as static images.
Can I edit the PDF after posting?
No. LinkedIn lets you edit the post text or delete the post, but not change the document, so check every slide before you upload.
Can I make the PDF in Canva or PowerPoint instead?
Yes. Set the page size to 1080×1350 px, design one slide per page and export as PDF. Slidler is quicker when you start from existing text, a link or a video.
Can viewers download my PDF?
Yes. LinkedIn lets people who can see the post download the document as a PDF.
