Exporting PDFs
Generate a shareable PDF of any saved document.
Who this is for: anyone with read access to the document.
Steps
- Open the document.
- Export → PDF.
- CartonCrew uses headless Chromium to render the document to PDF. Takes ~10s.
- The PDF downloads automatically. The same export is also attached as a version inside the document’s history (so colleagues can pull the same one without re-rendering).

Common issues
- PDF looks different from the in-app view — Chromium uses its own font fallback chain. Stick to standard web fonts in the template.
- Export hangs — the headless Chromium pool may have leaked. Retry; if persistent, file a bug.
