Exporting notes as PDF? Not possible! - EVERNOTE IS A DECEPTION

[IM.NOT.AI 0]

 It's ridiculous to know that I have to adapt to another virtual notebook because Evernote lacks this basic necessity for a professional. I upgraded my personal plan to the professional one just to see how the note export functionality works, and even when using the desktop version (for Windows) and Evernote Web, I still don't have that functionality. It's truly a mockery for the consumer, this application.

I've read all the forums, and finally decided to create an account here to ask this question myself: WHERE IS THIS OPTION TO EXPORT AS PDF??????

Hi.  It's here for me,  but check https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/4403616330387 for other OS's

Very strange. You should also be able to export by right-clicking the note in the note list.

There is no export option for notebooks on the Web, btw. This is not deceptive, just the opposite. In all export advisories it clearly says "Export from the desktop client".

When using a desktop client it is there, right in the File menu. Or behind the notebook in notebook view, at the 3 dots. Or if you prefer select a notebook, and then in the 3 dots menu of the middle (!) section:

 

Keep in mind that the pdf export has certain restrictions, rooted in the pdf file format. A pdf can not contain another file, like a pdf inside of it. So with pdf export, the notes and their text will export, as will any picture embedded into the note.

But attachments (pdf-Files, Office-Files, etc.) will only export as a symbolic picture of the attachment, not the attachment itself. To export including attached files, you need to choose the HTML- or the ENEX export format. You see such a pdf here - there is nothing behind or inside the "receipt.pdf" rectangle, it is just a place holder.

You can print to PDF if you’re using the web client.

Log out and log back in again.

I lost something a few months ago and a refresh of all the settings worked.

So much drama!

I can finalize by clicking on Export, but I don't know at what location it saves the file... Don't see an option to choose a location and cant't find any new files in Finder > Recent either. What am I missing, here?

Some information like what's your Device / OS / Evernote version,  and which menus you have used to export your note(s)?

When I click on „Export“ in the pdf export dialogue, a standard „Save file“ box will open. It lets me choose the location. This on a Mac with EN 10.67.4, but I think Windows should be similar.
