LinkedIn Carousel PDF Builder

How LinkedIn carousels work

LinkedIn doesn't have a native multi-image carousel like Instagram. Instead, there's a feature called Document posts — you upload a PDF, and LinkedIn renders each page as a swipeable slide in the feed. This is the de facto carousel format on the platform, and content creators use it heavily because it generates higher engagement than single-image posts (more swipes = more time-on-post = algorithmic boost).

How to use this builder

1. Design your slides in Figma, Canva, Photoshop, or wherever you make graphics. Export each slide as a PNG or JPG.
2. Drop all of them onto the upload area above. They appear in upload order.
3. Drag the slide cards to reorder if needed. Click × on a card to remove.
4. Pick the slide format (1:1 / 4:5 / 16:9) — should match what you designed at.
5. Click "Build PDF" and download.
6. On LinkedIn: click "Start a post" → click the document/file icon → upload the PDF. Add a caption and post.

Slide format & dimensions

• 1:1 Square (1080×1080) — most common, most engagement-tested
• 4:5 Portrait (1080×1350) — takes more vertical feed space, works for text-heavy slides
• 16:9 Landscape (1920×1080) — looks like a slide deck, professional but takes less feed space
• Auto · match first image — uses the actual aspect ratio of your first uploaded image for all pages

Carousel best practices

• 7–10 slides is the engagement sweet spot
• Cover slide = headline + one-line hook + visual
• One idea per slide, not three
• "Swipe →" CTA on the cover tells viewers there's more
• Final slide = CTA (follow, comment, DM, etc.)
