Hi @Fabian Payr,

I believe this user is likely German, as the translation for the 'Area' dropdown when exporting to PDF is 'All Layout Pages', in the English version this is 'All Spreads'.

Exporting an PDF I can choose between "pages" and "layout pages". What's the difference? 

Exporting 'All Pages' will export each page in your document as a separate page in the PDF file, regardless of whether this is a 'facing page' or not in Affinity.

Exporting 'All Spreads' will export any facing pages as a singular page in the PDF file, for example 2x A4 facing pages would be exported as 1x A3 page in the PDF.

I hope this clears things up!

Ich habe mein Affinity-Dokument in Layoutseiten angelegt. Beim PDF-Export in Einzelseiten kommt es zu Überlagerung von Bildbestandteilen auf die Nachbarseite.

I have designed my Print-Forms in Layout-Pages. With the export in PDF single-pages, there appearing peaces from images on the neighbour-page. How can I make an export in PDF without such mistakes?

Danke / Thank You

Hallo @hartmut.reitz

Willkommen im Affinity-Forum :)

Leider bin ich mir nicht 100% sicher, was Sie damit meinen - versuchen Sie, das PDF so zu exportieren, dass es einzelne Seiten hat, oder versuchen Sie, das PDF auf gegenüberliegende Seiten zu exportieren und dabei die volle Ausbreitungsgröße beizubehalten?

Wenn möglich, könnte uns ein Screenshot, der Ihr Problem zeigt, weiterhelfen!
