Set Default PDF File-name to Page, Not File

Context

I often work with files containing multiple pages, each of which I want to export individually. When exporting a page’s frames to a PDF, the default filename is based on the Figma file’s name, not the page’s name. While this can be changed, I find myself needing to do it every time.

Proposal

I recommend defaulting the export name to the page name, giving users more control over the PDF export process.

Why This Makes Sense:

  • You can’t export a PDF of the entire file, only individual pages within it.

  • Each page serves a different purpose, and the file name is usually too general to be useful as a PDF name.

  • Users can name each page with a file-like format, allowing for quick, easy, and consistent PDF exports.
