Print your sermon or save it as a PDF

The draft is done and you want it on paper for the pulpit, or as a PDF to send to your worship team. There's no separate Print button in Aligned — printing happens through Export → PDF, three taps from your draft.

Good to know

  • In the iPhone or Android app, PDF makes a real PDF file and opens your phone's share sheet. On an iPhone, Print is right there; on either phone, Save to Files keeps a copy, and Mail or Messages send it on.
  • Want to adjust the layout or add notes before you print? Choose Word (.docx) instead, then print from Word.

If it’s not working

I can't find a Print button

Printing is the PDF. Tap Export, then PDF, and print from the window that opens.

Where did my PDF go?

It's on your computer or phone, not in Aligned — an exported file never shows up in Saved Work. On a computer it's wherever you saved it from the print window. In the phone apps it's kept only if you picked somewhere in the share sheet: Save to Files puts it in your Files app.

I closed the share sheet and nothing saved

Closing the sheet without choosing anything saves nothing. Tap Export and PDF again, and pick Save to Files (or Print) this time.

There's no Export button

It appears once the draft has finished writing. If Aligned is still writing, give it a moment.

The printout doesn't match the text size on my screen

The Text size button (the “A” icon) only changes how the draft looks on your screen. The PDF always uses its own print size.
