Export an Experience to PDF Format

When working with a third-party platform that doesn't allow embedding rich content, such as Ceros experiences, you can export your published experiences in a static PDF format. Studio’s Export to PDF feature is helpful in use cases such as:

  • Sharing on PDF-compatible social media platforms (LinkedIn via slideshow carousels, etc.)

  • Offline presentations and digital advertisements

  • Print promotions (banners, hand-outs, etc.)

Note: The Export to PDF feature only works with published experiences.
