Considerations for "Export to PDF" feature
- This is a desktop-only feature.
- Tooltip pages which are hidden will not be exported.
- It will not print a wallpaper if you have used one in your background. For example, in my case, one of the pages uses this image/wallpaper background. It will not print it.
