This tutorial is courtesy of the Russell Brown Show.
I’ve recorded five video tutorials that demonstrate how to move portfolio content from your computer to an iPad or other portable device. Here are some of the topics I cover in the various videos:
* How to sequence images so they appear in the desired order on your tablet
* What types of images you can use
* How to create export presets
* Whether to include metadata
* How to export a PDF document from Bridge
* How to include video
* How to customize the portfolio cover
* How to add your name as author/artist
* How to add sticky notes
* How to add hyperlinks
* How to import into iTunes
* How to sync to your iPad
* Whether to use iBooks or Good Reader to view the portfolio once on the iPad
[Editor’s note: While Russell had photographers in mind when he created the how-tos, graphic designers with a little ingenuity can apply the information in “Exporting Adobe Bridge PDF Portfolios to an Apple iPad” and “Advanced PDF Portfolio Techniques in Adobe Acrobat Pro X” to their own portfolios.]
To open each video in a separate window, click on the links below or on their related screenshots.

Thanks for the video presentation, just started to collect my samples for my portfolio, and now I have the perfect work flow. Great stuff.
I agree with Russell the iPad is perfect for presenting and viewing portfolio samples however it’s also very ironic you can’t view the video links listed here on an iPad. Please provide iPad compatible video in CreativePro content. Just sayin…
In a nutshell, strip the metadata and rename in sequence.
I have been using my iPad as my portfolio for a while and my clients seem to love it. It is a great way to display my work. Can’t wait to try some of your tips to improve my use of the device.
However you say it in, Hawaiian, THANK YOU for this article, Russell Brown!
