Hello, I am using Affinity Designer. 

I have an artboard with 10 "pages" that will be exported as a PDF. 

I have 2 versions of this pdf, one with a background. The other without background. 

What I do today is adding/removing the visibility of each background layer in each 10 artboards I have. ("fond foncé" means background in the screenshots)

Is there a simple way to do that simply, so magicaly I have in one export 2 pdf versions ?

Regards,

Yann

Hi @YannV35 and welcome to the forums,

I can't think of an easy way in v1 of Designer but v2 now includes a States Panel which would allow you to toggle all the backgrounds off and on with a single click for both versions of your PDF...

I Think I may found something not too bad. 

I put all my background layers in a color, purple in my case.

Then when I want to switch with/without background, I select one bg layer, right clic, select all same colors. 

Then I clic on the litlle square to select or not. This is fast, but you have to be sure only one color is used for that purpose.
