## PDF export options

When you export a document as PDF, Craft opens an export sheet with options for paper size, font size, and what to include in the output. The available toggles and defaults differ slightly between platforms.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="macOS / iOS">
    | Option | Type | Default |
    | - | - | - |
    | Paper Size | Dropdown (A4, Letter, …) | A4 |
    | Font Size | Dropdown (Regular, …) | Regular |
    | Show Document Title | Toggle | Off |
    | Show Page Numbers | Toggle | Off |
    | Show Watermark | Toggle | Off |
    | Show Tags | Toggle | On |
    | Use Style | Toggle | On |
    | Dark Mode | Toggle | Off |

    Tap **Save As…** to finish the export.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Web / Windows">
    | Option | Type | Default |
    | - | - | - |
    | Page Size | Dropdown (A4, Letter, …) | A4 |

</Tabs>

<Info>
  The sidebar Table of Contents is a navigation view. It is not included in PDF exports, and there is no Table of Contents block to insert into a document. See [Table of Contents](/introduction/navigation#table-of-contents).
</Info>

<Info title="Watermark default differs by platform">
  On Web and Windows, the **Show Watermark** toggle is on by default. Turn it off in the export sheet if you don't want the Craft watermark on the bottom of the PDF. On macOS and iOS the watermark is off by default.
</Info>

<Info title="Excel Table Tip">
  To export or copy tables made in Craft to Excel:

  1. Export the document or page from Craft to Word.
  2. Copy the desired table in Word, paste it into Excel.

  Copying a table from Excel to a Craft page should work without any workarounds.

## Sharing vs. exporting

* If you want to **collaborate on a document**, consider using **Share Links** instead of exporting. This allows others to view or edit the document in Craft.
* You can also publish documents online via **Public Links** for easy sharing.

## Best practices for exporting

* Use **PDF or Word** for professional document sharing.
* Choose **Markdown or TextBundle** for cross-platform compatibility.
* **Batch export** multiple documents for backups or migrations (Mac & iPad only).
* **Check formatting** after exporting to ensure all elements appear correctly.
