Pages on iPad loses Export

Since updating Pages v12.2 on iPad, I can't Export as PDF. It's like the menus have been simplified and all export ability removed.


Anyone else corroborate this? It's still on the iPhone version.


iPad Pro, 12.9-inch, 6th Gen, Cell mmW

Hi mjohnstn,


According to this article: Export to Word, PDF, or another file format in Pages on iPad - Apple Support


To export a document to a PDF file:


  1. Open the document and tap the more button ( ...)
  2. Tap Export, then tap PDF


If you are not seeing this options, you may want to troubleshoot the app itself.


  1. Confirm there are not updates to install: How to manually update apps on your Apple device - Apple Support
  2. Close app completely: Close an app on your iPhone or iPod touch - Apple Support
  3. Restart your iPad: Restart your iPad - Apple Support


Hope that helps!
