Overview
Download a flipbook as a PDF from its Overview page: click Download, pick PDF for web or PDF for print, and click Download. Every plan can do this. On the Free plan the file carries a Flipsnack watermark, and on every paid plan it does not. The flipbook does not have to be published.
Requirements
- Plan: every plan, with a watermark on Free.
- A flipbook in your workspace.
How do I download my PDF?
- Open Content and click the flipbook to open its Overview page.
- Click Download in the right-hand column.
- Open the format list and choose PDF for web or PDF for print.
- Click Download.
The same dialog opens from the three-dot menu beside the flipbook in Content, under Download.
Which of the two?
- PDF for web: "Best for online sharing". A smaller file sized for screens, with your links still clickable.
- PDF for print: "Best for printing (300dpi, CMYK)". A larger file a press can reproduce. It drops links, buttons, videos and forms.
How to download a flipbook as a PDF covers both in full, including how to let readers save their own copy from the player.
Additional tips / FAQs
- Why is there a watermark? The workspace is on the Free plan. Every paid plan removes it.
- Can I download only some pages? Yes. Set a range under Page selection in the dialog.
- What is the file called? The flipbook's title. Rename the flipbook first to change it.
- Do I have to publish first? No. A PDF downloads from an unpublished flipbook too.
