FAQ
What is the difference between Export Pure Image Document and export to PDF?
- After you export a pure image document, the body content becomes image-based pages, so the text cannot be directly copied or searched.
- Exporting to PDF usually focuses more on fixed layout and cross-device viewing, and some PDFs may still keep a text layer.
- If your main goal is to reduce direct copying of content, choose Export Pure Image Document first.
Why can’t I edit the text directly after export?
- This feature converts the body content into image pages.
- Image-based pages are mainly intended for viewing and sharing rather than direct text editing.
- If you need to revise the content, return to the original document, edit it, and run Export Pure Image Document again.
