Is there a way when the user is finished creating their design and clicks on save, to save back multiple output types (ie a PNG and a PDF) at the same time.

Hi Alissa W, 
Thanks for the question. We currently allow users to choose one output type during export. For a different output type, the user will have to re-launch the editor and publish the asset again as a different export format. However, I am curious to understand the use case that you are trying to unlock so that we can work towards addressing it.

 

Thank you!

Hi Siddharth,

Thank you for getting back to me.  We would ideally have TWO versions of the asset: a print-friendly PDF, and a format such as PNG that can render directly on the web. Because in our world we're showing this asset on a web page (requiring the web-friendly asset) AND printing a document using the same image (ideally in a print-friendly format such as PDF). We believe this is a very common use case, so it would seem inevitable that Express have the capability to serve up the results of an editing session in two formats.
