# PDF Generation

### Overview

Export pages in your documentation into a PDF! (See a sample [here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FCU5ukSKIsNaOGY4-lVlc0enwVX9e1ll/view?usp=share_link))

PDF Generation is only available in the "Guides" section of your project.

### How do you use it?

* Navigate to the "Versions" section of your project
* Click the the ⋮ icon then click "Export Version"
* Choose from either exporting to PDF (emails the file to you) or exporting to ZIP (prompts a download in your browser)
