Kindly let us know in case you need further assistance.

Have you looked at Publishing a prototype? They let you share working prototype, support comments, and work very well. What is it about PDF that makes you want to use it instead?

Hi Dan,

I go back to this topic.

I have clients that want to see the design in a file, like a PDF that can be sent internally. Not published outside. So is there a way to export a desing in PDF with interaction? Meaninng that "tap" actions go the the corresponding page, etc.

Security security security.

Not every client can have a prototype in an insecure environment. That is the exact reason I am here.
It's kind of ridiculous to me that Adobe, the company that owns Acrobat, doesn't include exporting to interactive PDF.

Please make it happen! This is litterally the only thing that keeps me from transitioning a lot of projects to XD. Interactive PDF with active page links or/and EPUBs would be a big step forward for XD.

So this common-sense feature has been in "under review" since at least May 2020.

Seriously?  This feature is still under review?  

This boggles the mind - more so, as one contributor highlighted, Adobe own Acrobat yet could not have the foresight to include this feature for PDF exports, while all other prototype/wireframe software does have this feature.  Surely Adobe would have known the need for this as well as the annoyance it causes by omitting this feature.  

 

Has there been any word as to when the status goes from "Under Review" to implementation?

 

Thanks

Well last positive feedback adobe made was in august 2020. Haven't heard or seen anything since then. Which is definitely a disappointment for the same reasons you give. 

 

Would have thought a giant like Adobe would move faster on such a feature, but seems like they are taunting us.

Adobe is clearly trying to keep users within the cloud ecosphere. This simply does not work for many clients, or at least the ones that need secure assets.

Hopefully you folks went to the link they provided and voted. Unfortunately, they probably can't spend the personpower to implement this if there is not widespread approval. (my guess) — otherwise it seems like a logical step. Where I work it is definitely a security issue.

Again.... why is this even a feature request.. this should be one of the first things for adobe to implement. I mean... dont you own PDF. Its as absurd as the need to use a paid 3rd party plugin to send vectors from AI into AE. Or having the same bugs when scaling or scrolling past keyframes in Premiere Pro for what feels like 10 years. Your company got way to big for its own good.

Also looking for this feature to be added. Really disappointed in Adobe for letting everyone wait on this very simple feature since at least 2016.
