Export the content from an entire Journal

From the Home view, you can export an entire Journal, either as images or as a PDF. Blank pages will not be exported.

Drag & Drop

Paper is compatible Drag and Drop when dragging pages from Paper to a different app. However, Paper does not yet include the ability to import content from other apps via Drag and Drop.

Turn off background color for export

Go to Settings > Canvas Settings. On the next screen, scroll down to "Export with Background Color" to toggle the background color on/off.

Canvas size in Paper

The content you create in Paper is created at the dimensions of the device the particular Journal was created on. It's not possible to change the size or ratio of your canvas.

The bigger the iPad, the bigger your exported PNG file will be. You can check the resolution of your device at iOSRes.

If you've used Paper for a while, you may have Journals created on older, smaller devices with less resolution. It's best to begin a new project by creating a fresh Journal on your iPad or iPhone.

If you need to embiggen your image for printing, we recommend a service like Let's Enhance.
