You can use Adobe SendNow to share large PDF files directly in Acrobat instead of using email. You'll find more detail in this quick tip.

With Adobe SendNow, you can easily send large files to others. When you click 'Send Now', you upload your file to our secure server. We then notify your recipient that it's ready to download. Your recipient can click on a link within the email to download the file. Adobe SendNow subscribers can access their previously sent files at any time by logging into the service. Any sent file can then be deleted and recipients will no longer be able to download it. At the free subscription level, all sent files are stored for 7 days. With a premium subscription, sent files are stored for a number of days that is configurable by the sender.

On May 12, 2014 Adobe SendNow is transitioning to a brand new service called Adobe Send. Adobe Send is part of an improved, integrated set of Adobe document services that makes sending large files even easier by allowing you to send files you have stored on Acrobat.com as well as files from your desktop.

Adobe Send will be available beginning May 12, 2014, and will replace Adobe SendNow later this year. When it becomes available, SendNow subscribers will automatically become Adobe Send subscribers and can start using the new service to send and track large files online at no additional charge. Until mid-July, you’ll be able to use both Adobe Send and SendNow.
