You could use AI Component and upload that image to the chat, then, ask to make the button clickable and open a specific URL.

You could also use native Image Component to display the first page of PDF and add Open Link action to open the complete portfolio.

I think this should be the preferred method. Or maybe just upload the full PDF and embed it in a Web Embed component.

OR… just split the pdf file into 2 or more pdf’s. Then upload to Glide, as (filename)1, 2, 3, etc. There is also other software that can shrink the pdf to smaller. You will risk distortion or corrupt file if you go too low.
