Questions
Good to know
What can I export?
The current Pattern workflow supports PDF and PNG export.
Can I edit on a phone?
No. Pattern editing requires a larger screen. Small screens are intended for supported review and printing workflows.
Do I have to publish my Pattern?
No. You can keep your work private. Marketplace publishing is a separate choice for eligible content.
