A LinkedIn carousel is a PDF

There is no carousel button on LinkedIn. What you see as swipeable slides is a document post: someone uploaded a PDF, and LinkedIn renders each page as a slide.

That is why this tool's output is a PDF file. Post it with “Add a document” on a new LinkedIn post, and the pages become the slides.

What makes a carousel people finish

  • A cover that makes a promise. The first slide is the hook. Name what the reader gets by the last slide.
  • One idea per slide. A slide is a billboard, not a page. If it needs a paragraph, it wants to be two slides.
  • Big type. Carousels are read on phones. If it looks roomy on your screen, it is about right.
  • A reason to swipe. End slides on tension where you can. The swipe cue on the cover does the first push.
  • A final slide that asks something. Follow, comment, save, or try the idea. One ask, not four.

Square or portrait?

Square (1080 by 1080) is the safe default and the most common carousel shape.

Portrait (1080 by 1350) takes up more of the screen on mobile, which earns a little more attention per swipe. Both upload fine. Pick one and keep it consistent so your decks look like yours.

How to use the carousel maker

  1. Start from the sample deck to see the shape, or start blank.
  2. Write a cover: the promise of the deck in one line.
  3. Add one slide per idea. Keep bodies to a sentence or two.
  4. Pick size, theme, and an accent colour, and add your name for the footer.
  5. Download the PDF and post it on LinkedIn with “Add a document”.

Nothing leaves your browser

The slides are drawn and the PDF is assembled entirely on your device. Your content is never uploaded to us, there is no watermark, and there is no signup.

Frequently asked questions

How do you post a carousel on LinkedIn?
Upload a PDF. Start a new post, choose “Add a document”, and select the PDF this tool produces. LinkedIn renders each page as a swipeable slide. There is no separate carousel feature to look for.
What size should a LinkedIn carousel be?
Square, 1080 by 1080 pixels, is the standard and the safe choice. Portrait, 1080 by 1350, occupies more of the screen on phones. This tool exports both; what matters more is big type and one idea per slide, because almost all carousel reading happens on mobile.
How many slides should a carousel have?
Enough to deliver the cover's promise and no more. Most strong decks run five to twelve slides: a cover, one slide per idea, and a closing ask. This tool allows up to twenty, but if you are near that, consider splitting into two carousels.
Is this carousel maker really free?
Yes. No signup, no watermark, no upload. The PDF is built in your browser and downloads straight to your device, so we never see your content at all.
Can I use my own branding?
You can set the accent colour, a light or dark theme, and a footer with your name or handle. It is deliberately a fast, simple maker rather than a design suite. If you need full brand control, design the slides in your design tool and export them as a PDF the same way.
Do carousels still perform on LinkedIn?
Document posts remain a native format LinkedIn fully supports, and a multi-slide post earns multiple interactions from one reader by design. Like everything in the feed, the format does not rescue weak content: the cover's promise and the payoff decide the performance.
