Learn how to export your Gantt layout view as a PDF.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

The Gantt Layout provides a visual timeline for tracking your project’s progress. If you need to save or share this view with people outside Productive—such as clients or stakeholders—you can export it as a PDF.

This also allows you to archive a snapshot of your project timeline at a specific moment, ensuring you have a record of tasks and dependencies as they were at that time.

How to Export the Gantt Layout View

To export your Gantt layout as a PDF:

  1. Open your project and switch to the Gantt Layout.

  2. Click the Export button next to the filters.

  3. Select Export as PDF.

  4. The file will open in a new tab for preview.

  5. Download the PDF to save it locally.

Key Considerations

  • All tasks are expanded in the export.

    Even if some tasks are collapsed in your Gantt view, the exported PDF will include all tasks. To refine what appears in the export, use filters instead of collapsing tasks.

  • Unsaved changes are included.

    If your view has unsaved changes, you will be prompted to save them before exporting. However, if you proceed without saving, the export will still capture the current Gantt layout.

  • Large projects may take longer to generate.

    The more tasks and dependencies in your project, the longer the export process may take.

  • The export reflects the current viewport.

    Adjust your zoom level and filters before exporting to ensure the PDF displays the information you need.
