Ugly PDF | PDF Export Improvements
Simon MinHo Kim
One of the biggest reasons my using ClickUp is the overall aesthetics. But, when it comes to exporting Doc to PDF… ugh! If it just look the way it does inside ClickUp, that'd fine. But, the exported PDF is unsightly. Please beautify. Thank you.

Gantt chart PDF exports lack format in custom fields. This limits using the exports for communication purposes. Improvement is needed in this area.

Yes, need better printing! Currently, Dashboard with an Everything embed looks great on screen but will not print or save as PDF.
James Mallorie
Yes please!

Couldn't agree more! The current export is nothing more than a screenshot. If you have info in the cards that's not showing (because you need to scroll in the card) is doesn't even export. To us it's useless this way.

Simon MinHo Kim - how do you feel about your request getting merged into
There are a number of similar requests. Merging them would get the number of votes up which helps the ClickUp developers decide what to prioritize.
https://clickup.canny.io/feature-requests/p/richer-formatting-and-layout-design-for-docs-and-related
We could get these all into one thread that would be close to 250 votes.

I think merging all of these posts is an incredible idea! 💡
I've reached out to our Product team internally to ask to have these posts merged. Thank you so much for sharing your input and for helping to make us better!

I tried to export to PDF a document I carefully crafted in Clickup, to share a nice printed version with people, and I was amazed that NOTHING is preserved except the raw text. Please do something so it looks like the document (at least a little bit ?), it would be so much better !

In addition to the look, some essential information is missing from the PDF export.
Anything from the Header is missing from the PDF export. It should be there : those information are extremly important in the export, especially in the context of information management : a document without meta data such as the last modification date, or the contributors are useless:
Cover image
Page title & Icon
Subtitle
Owner
Contributor
Date updated
Sticky table of contents
And the main Title should have nice proportion !

How is this not implemented, yet? Shared links are not always an option, e.g., for audit-relevant documents. And having H1 etc. formatted as regular text is not something we could tolerate.
Ethan Whitted
100% agree with this. To give some more specifics to this general request, a minimum few things in particular I'd like to see are:
* Increased font size for headers (H1, H2, H3, etc.) in the PDF export. Currently they render as the same size as normal text.
* Full support for emojis in the PDF export. (PDFs support emojis, but during the conversion process, the ClickUp system will cause most of the emojis to become blank boxes instead.

This is still the only reason I can't switch my proposals to Clickup, I'm still relying on Notion for this, the PDF's have no styling at all. This doesn't seem like too big of a feature, but I feel like it's really important.

Miguel Stevens:If you're using a Mac, consider printing and saving as a PDF instead of using the PDF export feature. This method provides better rendering, closely resembling the edited document.
But this doesn't mean that developers shouldn't integrate the PDF export function so that it respects the original formatting as much as possible.
