Hi Figma team,
I’d love to suggest an improvement to PDF export.
Use case: I often work on a single page that contains many frames (slides / variants / iterations). Today, if I need a clean single multi-page PDF (one PDF containing multiple pages), the best option is File → Export frames to PDF.
Problem: this exports everything on the page and the page order depends on the layout (left-to-right, top-to-bottom). In real files, I usually have draft frames, alternative versions, notes, etc. So to export only what I want, I often end up:
-
moving/hiding unrelated frames, or
-
copying the frames to a brand new page just for export.
That’s extra friction compared to Adobe XD, where exporting a multi-page PDF from a selection is straightforward.
Feature request:
-
Add an export option like “Export selected frames as multi-page PDF”
-
With a toggle: Selection only
-
And ideally a choice for page order: selection order / layer order / auto order (L→R, T→B)
Alternative idea: allow users to “group/tag frames for export” and export that group as a single multi-page PDF.
This would greatly improve workflows for people using Figma for slide decks, audits, client deliverables, and any multi-frame document living on one page.
Thanks!
