The timeline

Since a PDF is a static file, the timeline does not have any effect on the PDF output. The output engine will disregard all animation information, and generate the PDF as if no animation was made.

In the example above, the frame flies in from the left (as an intro animation), bounces in the middle (for emphasis), and then flies out (as an outro animation). This means the frame is always in motion and never has a stagnant or still moment.

If you were to remove all animations, as initially shown, the position and size of the frame would determine how it appears in the PDF.

When the export is ready, your browser will download the file into your downloads folder.

Embedded PDF assets

When you place a PDF as an asset inside an image frame, its content is embedded in the final PDF output.

Overprint

Overprint statements inside embedded PDF assets are preserved in the final output — the overprint behavior of the source PDF is kept in the exported document.
