Hi Matej,

As far as i know there's no way to select specific artboards to be exported in a single PDF document.

Would be a nice feature. Tanks for the reply.

You can use Apple Preview/third party software for this, but i agree it would be nice to be able to do it in Affinity.

I'm moving this thread to the Feature Requests section.

Hi Matej,

It is indeed possible :lol:. I'm not sure if this was added in the mean time, because I haven't noticed someone mentioning it, 

but you can export specific artboards in a single pdf document and it is actually pretty trivial:

 

Just select the artboards you want to export in layers panel or by shift+clicking the the artboard titles in the canvas and go to Export to pdf > Area:Selection without background > Export

 

and you will get a multipage pdf of just the selected artboards. 

 

I wish I had known this sooner, so I'm posting this for those who were, like me, missing this "hidden" feature. :) 

 

Regards,

HI,

 

this featured should be added also for the other formats like Jpg, png.

I'm always in the need of exporting artboards as pages/single files, and it would be the quickest way to do it, rather than using export persona.

There should be an option in the layer panel to select a group of layers, export as:
