How to export a journey map as PDF

Export a journey map to PDF, choosing which extras to include and letting the layout fit to one page automatically.

To export a journey map, open it in the editor, click the download icon in the top-right corner, choose which features to include, and click Export to PDF. The file downloads automatically once it's ready. PDF is the only export format for journey maps.

Prerequisites

How to export the journey map

1

Open the export options

In the journey map editor, click the download icon in the top-right corner, near the version history and favourite icons. The Export journey map modal opens.

2

Choose what to include

Tick the features you want in the export. All six are off by default, so an export with nothing ticked gives you the map on its own.

The Export journey map modal with the subtitle Select features to include in your export, six unchecked checkboxes labelled Journey description, Persona legend, Performance indicator, Coordinator, Tags, and Portfolio items, and Cancel and Export to PDF buttons.

Each option adds one element to a header section above the map:

  • Journey description - the description from the journey information panel

  • Persona legend - the personas used on the map and their colours

  • Performance indicator - the map's status (Healthy, Monitored, or Attn needed)

  • Coordinator - the assigned coordinator

  • Tags - the tags applied to the map

  • Portfolio items - the summary of portfolio items, with counts and progress per type

3

Export and wait for the download

Click Export to PDF. An Export complete dialog with Your export is ready appears when the file is done, and the PDF downloads automatically. Click Close to dismiss the dialog.

Important: Don't edit the map while it's exporting

What the PDF includes

The PDF shows the full journey map exactly as it appears in the editor: every visible lane, card, stage, and step, plus any features you ticked in the export options. The journey information section is always included.

The layout fits automatically, so there are no page-size, orientation, or scale settings to choose:

  • The full width of the map always fits on a single page.

  • Very large maps (around 50 columns or more) scale down to fit that width.

  • Spanned cards are never split across a page break.

If your account has a branding logo configured, it appears on the PDF. To set or change it, see How to set up custom branding.
