I have 120 product images in the Bridge output workspace and need a single PDF contact sheet with filenames and small captions for each image to share with the merchandising team by Tuesday. Create and export that contact sheet.

Merchandising will skim the images quickly and dislikes tiny thumbnails. Produce a PDF contact sheet from the Bridge output workspace that uses larger thumbnails for the top 20 images, filename captions beneath each, and a two-column layout for the rest. Make the PDF printable at A4 and explain the layout choices so they don’t ask for another version.

We’ve cataloged 120 product shots in Bridge and merchandising wants a contact sheet to pick hero images, but they’ll complain if thumbnails are too small or filenames are missing. I’m torn between a single dense PDF and a multi-page looser layout. Recommend a contact sheet layout that surfaces the top 20 large thumbnails, includes searchable filenames and captions, and paginates the remainder in a tight grid. Explain export settings for legibility both on screen and printed proofs, and any metadata fields I should include to speed selection.

Questions people ask

honest answers

Because you rarely think 'I want the redaction tool'. You think 'I have to share this without leaking the client's details'. Start from the need, and the feature finds you.

Real. Every job here was drawn from what people in real roles were actually seen doing in Acrobat — not a feature checklist.

No. Each page gives you a ready prompt you can paste into an AI assistant, plus the plain steps to do it yourself. Start with either — the goal is the finished job, not the tool.
