While Facebook may limit uploads for personal pages to photos, videos, animated GIF files and web links, you have other ways to share the content of the PDF file with friends. For something like a single-page poster or form, saving the PDF file as a JPG photo allows you to post an image of the document as a picture; you can convert it for free with the Mac’s Preview program or the PDF to JPG app for Windows. Taking a screenshot of the open page is another way to create a picture of it to post.

If it is a more complicated file, like a multipage document or an interactive form, store it on a file-sharing site like Dropbox or Microsoft OneDrive. Once the file is online, create a public link for sharing and then post that link on your Facebook page.
