 ## PDB distributions
 
+There are three main ways to distribute PDBs for managed code: via a dedicated .snupkg, including them in the main package, and embedding them directly into the assembly. Each has advantages and drawbacks, depending on your use case.

+### .snupkg symbol packages
+
 If you distribute the library via a package published to [NuGet.org](http://nuget.org), it is recommended to build a [symbol package](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/create-packages/symbol-packages-snupkg) and publish it to [NuGet.org](http://nuget.org) as well. This will make the symbols available on [NuGet.org symbol server](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/create-packages/symbol-packages-snupkg#nugetorg-symbol-server), where the debugger can download it from when needed.
 
-Alternatively, Portable PDBs can be included in the main NuGet package by setting the following property in your project:
+.snupkg symbol packages have following limitations:
+
+- They do not support Windows PDBs (generated by VC++, or for managed projects that set build property `DebugType` to `full`)
+- They require the library to be built by newer C#/VB compiler (Visual Studio 2017 Update 9).
+- The consumer of the package also needs Visual Studio 2017 Update 9 or newer.

+If a .snupkg does not work for your scenario, consider including debug information in the main package via one of the alternatives.

+> When including PDB files in the main package, projects that consume the package must _also_ opt-in to copying the symbols into their own output directory.

+> [!TIP]
+> Classic .NET projects should also consider changing the `DebugType` property to `portable` (or `embedded`) to match .NET SDK projects.

+### Embed in assembly
+
+You can embed Portable PDB debug information directly in the assembly by setting the following property in your project:
+
+```xml
+<PropertyGroup>
+  <DebugType>embedded</DebugType>
+</PropertyGroup>
+```
 
-Consider including PDBs in the main package if it is not possible to use .snupkg for the above reasons. 
-For managed projects, consider switching to Portable PDBs by setting `DebugType` property to `portable`. This is the default for .NET SDK projects, but not classic .NET projects.
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> Keep in mind that embedding debug information in the assembly increases binary size. Larger binaries increase application size, NuGet restore time, assembly load time (if assemblies are very large), regardless of whether the user needs to debug the source code of your library or not.
