In Figma Buzz, there's an issue with exporting pages to PDF: the selected format doesn't apply to all pages. I select the desired pages, click "Export," then set the format to PDF in the right panel and click "Export" again. However, all pages are still saved as PNG files instead of PDF. Even if I manually change the format to PDF for the first or second page, the export still results in PNG files for all pages. The only way to get a multi-page PDF is to manually set the PDF format for each page individually. With many pages (e.g., 20), this is extremely time-consuming. It would be great if the selected format (like PDF) could automatically apply to all pages during export.
Question
Figma Buzz: Selected Export Format Not Applied to All Pages
Hi
Right now, this is expected behavior for Figma Buzz. As you mentioned, while you can export multiple pages at once, you must click into each individual page to set the file type manually. I completely understand how this could be extremely time-consuming and tedious.
I’ve updated your topic into a feature request, so we can gauge how this is affecting our overall community. And I’ve passed along your feedback to our Buzz team for future consideration.

There is nearly no scenario where this behavior would make any sense. This bottleneck makes it practically unusable when you have to bulk export. Which is one of the major use cases for Buzz.
Buzz is an excellent tool—I’ve been using it a lot!
But recently something changed: now we have to export each page one by one and then merge them with an external app.
This really takes away from the tool’s value.
Please let the Figma development team know that disabling this feature seriously affects our workflow.
We don’t want to use other software to handle this, because we love Figma.
I’m sure that, just like me, there are plenty of users who want this feature back!
