Exporting Multiple Layers to PDF in Affinity Photo


Recommended Posts

I have a document in Affinity Photo with multiple layers each of which is intended to be a separate page in a PDF which I export. (So, layer1, would be page 1, layer2, page 2 etc.) I haven't been able to find out how to do this yet as I haven't been able to find an option for exporting layers as separate pages in a single PDF document.

Is there a way to do this, please?

The Export Persona in Photo would allow you to create Slices from your layers, and export each Slice as a separate PDF file. But then you would need to combine them, somehow, to get a single PDF in the end. (You could combine them with some other application, or by bringing them into Publisher.)

But File > Export in Photo will not produce multi-page PDF files.

Generally what you're trying would be done with Designer (using Artboards) or Publisher (using Pages).
